Please analyze mails I sent and review the code afterwards please
answer this thread again.

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.
