Want to give my 2 cents. i recently did a post concerning the continiuos 
emergency exits of vdr.
this is the only point i dont like about that program.
Would be glad if a solution could be found. i did post a strateg in one 
of my post before.

too much plugins? just doint use them *g*

im currently using vdr-1.1-29 with one dvb-s card and it working really 
good.
i wait some time to update it. the only thing which isnt right in normal 
use,
sometime there is a a/v sync problem again , which should be solved some 
tiome ago, but i did update
to 29 and now there is it again. maybe its the dvb driver, certainly it 
is ..

okay nice evening,
gunnar
