I run a similar system, but without libxine. I have two dvb-cards, one 
FF Technotrend DVB-S (which outputs the video and sound), and one budget 
Technotrend dvb-t card.

Today in the morning I had my vdr "frozen" to the last sat-channel I was 
watching yesterday, and when trying to swap to dvb-t channel, I got the 
"channel unavailable". The sat-channels worked normally, but the dvb-t 
card did not. Restarting VDR and reloading the drivers did not help. I 
had to do a full reboot to get the dvt-t channels to work...

This happens to me a couple of times per week, and it's really annoying 
cause I miss recordings because of this :-(

I run also the latest Ubuntu 8.04, but with fairly recent drivers from 
linuxtv.org...

Could this be some kind of conflict with the Ubuntu-kernel and the 
HG-drivers?
