Do you know how large the buffers usually grow?
If you haven't reduced vdrs log level (-l) this info should be
somewhere in /var/log/ and you can take a look at the buffer
usage w/ eg:

$ grep vdr /var/log/* | grep 'ring buffer' | less

Did any overflows happen (you can search for 'overflow' in the output
of above commands to find them)?


I've now checked my vdr logs here (starting ~ a week ago) and not a single
buffer overflowed. I would have expected a few problems, but it looks like
the tuning worked. (However that vdr has all data moving threads running
at real time priority and this may have helped too.)

Thanks,
