While in DVB there is a list of all services (the PAT), in DAB you just receive single service definitions - without knowing when you received all services. But this would be necessary to afterwards output a sorted list of all services in the ensemble. Hence currently all services are output just after they have been found (this way you also see when a new service starts). Despite that the output will soon change and only display one line per SId that combines subchannel and label, as the FIC handling is changed a bit.
The new DAB spec added a feature called "Configuration Information" (FIG 0/7) which allows to transmit the service count and therefore be able to tell when all services have been found. But it is currently not present by any ensemble I receive and will take time until it is used in the real world.
So I close this for now.
Currently the console prints the found services one after the other:
Why not sort this output (first line EID, then SID, then service label) or shorten the text, so that one could see immediately if there is anything new.
