There are 2 issues one if the filehandle is closed the DVB thread is sometimes still spinning in the background (eg. if someone runs the DVB scan application) (I'm writing this the 3rd time now!). The other one that Steve's patch immediatelly unlocks the "bridge" after the node is closed. For me this issue is still open.
