I think i asked Klaus about that sometime. Guess it just wasn't important. :-) I've always "scan-channels"-d manually for nearly 5 years. But you just made me change that script to do the 'touch' after zapping though the channels, so that i don't have to do that manually anymore. Thank you for saving me a few seconds per day. :-) I can't believe that in five years that idea never came to my mind. :-) >>The patch 'shifts' the 10 minutes writing to: >>the epg.data-file has to be at least 10 minutes out of time > > Great, I have to look on how to apply such a patch against vdr-1.3.37. A grep for epg.data should quickly unravel where VDR looks if the 10 minutes are over. Bis denn -- 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.
