I experienced these crashes too. VDR may also crash after longer
runtime when switching to a channel with high EPG load (like
Pro7).

I reported this here long time ago. In the meantime I tried to
investigate the problem several times, but didn't found a clue.
I'm pretty sure that it's a buffer overflow in the si-parser, as
most of the time you get totaly corrupted pointers in the event
structures.
