Thank you for the hint. I have a quit small box (AMD K6/350) and
have installed softdevice - xine is not yet installed. I have the
jumps with watching TV over vdr+softdevice (vidix-driver). Since the box
is so small I am not quite shure, if it is a driver problem or
vdr/softdevice
running on the small box. That's why i recorded just with the
text-skin and checked the recording. 
I can try to send the stream to an other faster computer to check the
live picture.

Thanks, Malte
