You assumed incorrectly. I killed xine and edited the file while xine was not running. in fact the line gui.dropped_frames_warning:0 is now permanently in the config file but still I get the notifications (or at least some of them) Nobody reading these lines knows what part of xine´s source code do I need to murder to get rid of the notifications once and for all ? wrote: > > I have added > > > > > > gui.dropped_frames_warning:0 > > > > but still if the system gets stressed I get a warning box > > > > Some xine dev knows by any chance how to remove xine?s ability to > > display warning boxes or to make them of size 0x0 pixels ? I assume you did not unload xine before editing the config file. The file can not be edited while xine is running. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
