Hello


why does the screen blank when a timer starts or stops?

It's not a horrible problem, but i'm intereesed why this seems to be always required.


VDR1.3.17, new AV711x firmware.
3*DVB-S 2.1/1.5 FF, 1*DVB-T
LNB_sharing

Normally this should only happen when a recording is started
on the primary device, because then the live signal is put
into "Transfer Mode", which results in a short blackout.

I don't know, though, whether the LNB_sharing patch has
something to do with what you observe...

So, if there was some kind of "replay buffer" implemented, then vdr could initiate transfer mode a few seconds into the future and the buffer would take up the slack? :)
