option --provider-name doesn't work without additional args to the output address

[YAtOff]

if we write output address in the form ip:port (without @interface or /option/option ...),
despite we have provided --provider-name sth. on the command line,
the program reaches dvblast.c:196

if ( psz_string == NULL || !*psz_string ) goto end;

and the function config_ParseHost returns, without setting p_config->psz_service_provider.
As a result the provider name isn't changed.

That must happen on dvblast.c:262:

if ( !p_config->psz_service_provider && psz_provider_name )
    p_config->psz_service_provider = strdup( psz_provider_name );

where psz_provider_name is the command line argument.

I don't get it, what does provider name have to do with the interface?

if you write in the config file like this:
239.1.1.1:1111 1 1111

and run: dvblast --provider-name SomeProvider ....

the provider name won't be changed to SomeProvider.

That's because the program reaches:

if ( psz_string == NULL || !*psz_string ) goto end;

and never reaches:

if ( !p_config->psz_service_provider && psz_provider_name )
p_config->psz_service_provider = strdup( psz_provider_name );

But if you add an option to the address:
239.1.1.1:1111/udp 1 1111

and run with the some arguments, it works.

You must set the protocol after the address like you discovered.
I'll look into it but not setting the address I think is not supported at all.
