From what I understand, when the recording starts (a few minutes before the 
actual start of the program) there is no data yet, the second apid does not 
kick in until the real program starts. The second apid is not used for the 
the commercials (i.e. when vdr starts the recording process), but is 
activated only when the real program starts. 

The "desired" functionality would be to read from the second apid, even if 
there is no data, and then when the data starts to arrive (when the real 
program starts - assuming this is how the drivers work) to start recording it 
in a way that during replay VDR "knows" when the second apid becomes valid.

Similarly, when the movie ends the second apid may no longer contain any data, 
even though VDR will still record the channel for a few minutes more.

Cheers,
Dennis
