Our Trevini Guidebuilder has several attribute checkboxes that can be set
for each program, such as "Parental Control" and "Captioning Service." One
attribute is called "Content Redistribution." I have no idea if it really
sets the ATSC Broadcast Flag, or if it is a holdover from the original DVB
program guide software that is was ported from.
