The same problem exists in setups which use an DXR3-card as output device, so that vdr always has to be in transfer-mode. Several members on the dxr3plugin-users mailing list seem to have this problem. With my setup (using one full-featured and one budget DVB-s), I only get the black screen when a recording starts. Normally the budget card is the source for the transfer mode, but it is also used for the first recording. It seems, if the epg-scan has started before the recording started, the first (full-featured) card does the epg-scan. If the transfer mode has to be stopped on the second card, it doesn't get switched correctly to the first card (the logfiles suggest that the epg-scan continues). Maybe there is a problem in vdr that prevents the correct selection of receiving cards. One thing I noticed: The comments in cDevice::GetDevice() seem to indicate that vdr distinguishes full-featured and budget cards with an HasDecoder()-call, which returns true for dxr3-devices.
