Hi Jörg,

first I thougt this is a driver problem too, but then I did a few
tests. I ALWAYS used the same driver and can reproduce that up to
VDR 1.1.28 everything was just fine and beginning with VDR 1.1.30
that bug was introduced. And it does NOT depend on how much Cards
you have installed. And it is not relevant what driver you use !!!
