Yeah, something like this would be possible, as I was playing around
with VDR the last time it happened. I had a timer entrie for the night
and was restarting VDR a couple of times before the scheduled time. This
entry wasn't deleted. Yesterday I just used VDR as intended (no restarts
or the like).

So it might be that VDR "forgets" to delete a timer entry if it was
restarted.

Cheers,
Juri
