hi, > but there are recordings going on. This further improves stability. I have a dedicated VDR box running vdr-xine with P4 2.4GHz and Radeon 9200. Stability is not currently a problem (1.3.27) - since spring the system has been easily up more than a day :) It has stayed up without problems for at least a week, but due to my usage of nvram-wakeup, I have no statistics of longer uptime. The reason why a separate xine is nice is that currently the setup eats up all the CPU cycles. Killing xine for the time when I am doing something on the box like updating will speed things up considerably, and the VDR itself will continue recording if it has something to record etc. without disturbing. Btw. if someone has any hints on how to reduce used cpu cycles, they are warmly welcome. And yes, I use the fglrx driver - without that the picture is jerky. yours, Jouni
