[vdr] RE : Pb with ttxtsubs-0.04b and vdr-1.2.6

["karim" <kafifi@nerim.net>]

Hi,

This a special channel which is using by a french operator to provide
proprietary epg.
Unfortunately, I can't explain the difference between this "epg channel"
and the others. Perhaps someone could tell us more ?

That's what I mean : vdr doesn't give up and displays indefinitely 
"Ttxtsubs: Service Information read : timeout"

If you're on Astra, and if you have a little time ;-), you can easily
repeat this by tuning vdr on this epg channel :
EPG CANAL:12363:v:S19.2E:27500:160:80:0:0:94:0:0:0

Bye !
Karim.

This should only happen if there is no service information
on the channel (which typically means that there is no
signal, or the frontend has hung or something), and it
should give up trying after 5 seconds anyway.

Is this a normal and working transponder? Are there
any program channels on this transponder?

Do you mean that it doesn't give up after 5 seconds?

Sounds strange, I don't know yet what this could be.
