I have tried you scripts but I am having some problems. The main one is
with viewing the schedule. I always get a timeout message when this
happens. Worse: vdr no longer responds to any svdrp after that.
My (quick) guess is that this is due to the amount of epg data on my
system (epg.data is 270Kb - which I would not have thought was that
much, but it may take a while to lste over my isdn).
That may be a problem of the LSTE under svdrp, since it returns the
_complete_ EPG database without prefiltering and can take a long time
depending on its size. You could try to change timeouts on your local
HTTP server, but I don't think it would help much.
