Hi list, hi Klaus, In continuation of this old topic [1] and the bug ticket [2]: I've written a patch that changes handling of receivers in VDR. The patch makes sure that receivers of priority of -1 won't block a device, without re-introducing the Live TV Freeze [3] bug. Details of this issue are very well documented in [2], patches are also available there. In short, -1 receivers are supposed to be disconnectable at any time, but transfer mode runs at -1 priority too, and should not be disconnected. Transfer mode runs at -1 so that an existing transfer mode does not block channel switching. The solution is to let the channel switch code know that the transfer source device will soon be available.
