I have seldom run into crash with 1.4.1 + maintenance patch. However, I have not been able to reproduce or get any log out of crash. v1.4.x is quite stable in my opinion. For everyday PVR usage it has not crashed once. Some plugins still causes some problems (mainly TV-OnScreen that crashes if there is a specific situation with empty column and user hits enter. Normal empty column problem works well. Unfortunately I cannot be more specific without further testing). > The first thing I want to address in version 1.5 is the problem with > systems that contain more than one CAM that implements a particular > encryption method, but only one (or "not all") of them actually > has a smart card to decrypt a given channel.

Once these > two problems are solved, I'll release version 1.5.0 ;-) Thanks for the info! These features are not important for me so I'll be using v1.4.x a bit more longer :-) Br, Pasi
