I assume you've used at least VDR-1.3.32 for taking the recording. 
Please run the attached hack (chECKpICTUREsTARTcODEpERpESpACKET) on an 
uncut recording where your software complains, like that:

	cat 0*.vdr | chkpscppp

No news means good news ;-)

But in the expected case, would you please provide me with a little 
sample for downloading?

Bye.
