hm.  could it be that there is also a problem in vdr.1.3.5 with a _satellite_ 
transponder?
Because the  'set system time from transponder' feature does not work for me 
since I upgraded to 1.3.5. There is also sth wrong with my system clock. so 
anytime I reboot, the clock is set to a different value.  And unfortunately, 
the transponder does not set the time correctly. 
I am using a gentoo system. with /etc/localtime pointing 
to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin. 
wouldnt be much of a deal if the transponder would give me the correct time.  
This used to work earlier (1.2.6 and below).

One additional strange issue is that I thought the Teletext plugin would give 
me the correct time, which it does, but very short after I load the plugin, 
the teletext time is changed to the wrong system time.  ?!  what's that mean?

i can ssh and manually set the correct time, but after a reboot the time has 
drifted away.   

maybe this is all gentoo related and off topic,  but at least the transponder 
time feature should work !


greetings
Tom
