 Some titles are international (used for all languages without localization) titles - showing a poster of the international is better then defaulting to a specific locale.

		+	NOTE 1: The cell_id cannot be used to identify a service. The combination of service_id and original_network_id
		+	remains a unique identification of a service.
		+
		+	It is recommended to make all receivable multiplexes with the same transport_stream_id but with different
		+	cell_ids available to the user, and only when a service (not a transport stream) is available through multiple
		+	multiplexes to select a preferred multiplex based on e.g. reception quality.
		+
		+	Any reference resolution from a transport_stream_id or a service_id (e.g. from a linkage_descriptor
		+	transport_stream_id/service_id pair) to a multiplex/frequency requires consideration to handle the potential multiplicity
		+
		+	Note that in networks deploying the service_availability_descriptor, the unique identification of a transport stream by
		+	the tuple (transport_stream_id, original_network_id), can often be sensibly replaced by identification through the triplet
		+	(transport_stream_id, original_network_id, cell_id).
