Anyone know if increasing the various buffers within VDR is enough to get
rid of the buffer overflows? Is it a true solution or just band aid?
There was a mail a while ago that mentioned values that could be used and
where, but I've not tried that yet. But tonight I missed a South Park
episode due to an overflow, so I could give the idea a shot. :)
To my experience, it happens sometimes (at least on my system) when vdr
goes into "transfermode" this happens always, when you start a recording
(in a single card system). This transferthread which is responsible for
the liveview, i believe and that's what my logfiles display, is for some
reason somtimes unable to process the data it recieves from the card
fast enought. As soon as it's buffer overflows the liveview will have
hickups.
