Hm, I looked in my runvdr and found:

rmmod dvb_ttpci stv0299 dvb_core ttpci_eeprom saa7146_vv saa7146 2>/dev/null
rmmod ves1820 tda8083 sp8870 ves1x93 video_buf videodev 2>/dev/null

Might it be possible that removing saa7146* stuff is not usefull?
Only reloading dvb_ttpci (with firmware) is enough. Hm... I'll test this.

I'am not using ir etc. on this maschine. Only vdradmin is working there 
- no TV-equipment, Remote-control -> tty8, keyboard.
This could really help?? If YES I'am going to test this.
