I have still big problems with vdr 1.3.30 It seems that only myself and a few other guys from vdrportal have the same problem that I posted on 23.8. ("live picture freezes when recording starts"). Today I recognized that even live tv (ZDF) without starting recordings freezes permanently. ----------log----------------- Aug 25 21:36:57 linvdr user.info vdr[519]: switching to channel 2 Aug 25 21:36:57 linvdr user.debug vdr[535]: transfer thread started (pid=535, tid=10248) Aug 25 21:36:57 linvdr user.debug vdr[536]: receiver on device 1 thread started (pid=536, tid=11273) Aug 25 21:36:57 linvdr user.debug vdr[537]: TS buffer on device 1 thread started (pid=537, tid=12298) Aug 25 21:36:58 linvdr user.info vdr[524]: channel 13 (ZDFinfokanal) event 21:30 'flosse & pfote' status 4 Aug 25 21:36:58 linvdr user.info vdr[524]: channel 14 (ZDFdokukanal) event 21:15 'Allein unter Kuhen Ehenotstand auf dem Bauernhof' status 4 Aug 25 21:36:58 linvdr user.info vdr[524]: channel 22 (Eurosport) event 21:30 'Boxen' status 4 Aug 25 21:36:59 linvdr user.info vdr[524]: channel 11 (3sat) event 21:00 'delta' status 4 Aug 25 21:36:59 linvdr user.info vdr[524]: channel 2 (ZDF) event 20:15 'Die Berliner Runde' status 4 Aug 25 21:36:59 linvdr user.info vdr[524]: channel 21 (EuroNews) event 21:30 'Nachrichten' status 4 Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[519]: switching device 1 to channel 2 Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.info vdr[519]: timer 4 (2 2137-0337 '@TITLE EPISODE') start Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[519]: Title: 'Die Berliner Runde' Subtitle: '' Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.info vdr[519]: record /video0/@Die_Berliner_Runde/2005-08-25.21.37.50.99.rec Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[519]: creating directory /video0/@Die_Berliner_Runde Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[519]: creating directory /video0/@Die_Berliner_Runde/2005-08-25.21.37.50.99.rec Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[519]: recording to '/video0/@Die_Berliner_Runde/2005-08-25.21.37.50.99.rec/001.vdr' Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[538]: file writer thread started (pid=538, tid=13323) Aug 25 21:37:33 linvdr user.debug vdr[539]: recording thread started (pid=539, tid=14348) Aug 25 21:37:44 linvdr user.info vdr[519]: confirm: Aufzeichnung beenden?
