I'm running "LNB Sharing" without any segfaults.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Start VDR
2) Select DVB-S 
3) Select DVB-T
4) Zap to next DVB-T channel
5) boom.

That's absoletley reproducible.
Sometines VDR delivers artefacts in 3) and segfaults there.

I assume that starting/stopping a transfer thread is causing the error.
See the problems with DVB-S budget cards too!


>As soon as I attempt to change the channel, 


Here "channel change" is the trigger too.

I haven't seen any ARM crashes for month.
Are they maybe not logged?
