Hi,
i solved the problem by adding a few sleep's to the exit routine
from xmltv2vdr.pl:
 ProcessEpg($descv);

 # Lets get out of here! :-)
+sleep 1;
 SVDRPsend("QUIT");
+sleep 1;
 SVDRPreceive(221);

+sleep 1;
 close(SOCK);


until now i have not seen any further errors (broken pipe/missing epg)

Regards Onno
