IMHO the alert function should work based on the time-since-boot clock, not relative to the calendar clock. The watchdog did not fire on my machine while I was playing with the clock. However, there are some other clock-dependent things in VDR that are not designed to handle larger clock jumps. Usually, clock jumps should be just a few seconds, and only after starting VDR. You should investigate what causes the clock to jump 4 minutes. If your PC clock is THAT bad, its probably worth dumping the mainboard - you do want recordings in time, do you? If this is due to different clocks on transponders, you should restrict the clock sync to a single transponder.
