[linux-dvb] VDR: sound-problems, aborting recording

[Ansgar Jonietz <ansgar@jonietz.de>]

Hi there,

I've two problems with my VDR.

First: Sometimes the log shows lines like

Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: switching to channel 4
Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: ERROR (dvbapi.c,2089): Device or
resource busy
Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: ERROR: failed to set PIDs for channel
4
Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: retrying
Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: ERROR (dvbapi.c,2089): Device or
resource busy
Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: ERROR: failed to set PIDs for channel
4
Jul 25 11:14:04 ophelia vdr[1070]: retrying
Jul 25 11:14:05 ophelia vdr[1070]: ERROR (dvbapi.c,2089): Device or
resource busy
Jul 25 11:14:05 ophelia vdr[1070]: ERROR: failed to set PIDs for channel
4
Jul 25 11:14:05 ophelia vdr[1070]: retrying

The picture is OK, but most channels came without sound, the others with
the sound of only one channel -- so I can watch e.g. Sat1 with the sound
of Pro7!
At the same time the program info while switching channels is empty, but
in Menu -> Schedule the data is correct. 
After a driver-reload the sound is normal.

Second problem: I tried a record: after a few minutes the recording
stops and the log shows:

Jul 25 11:38:00 ophelia vdr[1375]: timer 1 start

Jul 25 11:39:59 ophelia vdr[1384]: ERROR (dvbapi.c,532): Unknown error
769

The system should be performant enough. I use VDR.84 with the latest CVS
driver, but without the two patches Klaus posted -- I think they haven't
to do with this problems - or have they?

I hope somneone could help me,
