Personally i've patched VDR ever since i've started writing Master-Timer
nearly 5 years ago.
The patch 'shifts' the 10 minutes writing to:
the epg.data-file has to be at least 10 minutes out of time
After that you just have to make the epg.data file a bit older and VDR
updates it the next moment.
touch -r /bin/bash /video/video0/epg.data
Here's the patch:

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated,
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
