Devices are expected to honour the CA field. Without this patch there

is no way to tell a VDR that it may not use streamdev for a specific
channel.

+# The cannels.conf ca field can be used to bind a channel to a specific

+# This fix should probably become part of streamdev. However as it
+# changes the behaviour of streamdev, I decided to keep it as a separate
