[vdr] Re: [linux-dvb] lockups with NEWSTRUCT

[jhall@UU.NET (Jeremy Hall)]

It appears that when I add in the filter for EPG the box locks up after a
while.  I currently have the TDT and TOT running, although I don't think
TOT gives me anything.

I'll leave this running tonight, I have to go out, and even have scheduled
a timer.  We'll see what happens and if the machine is still running when
I get back.
