-------------------------------------------
MB: Asus K7M
Athlon 600 MHz @600 MHz ;-)
128 MB SDRAM
Video Card: ATI Rage 128 32 MB OEM
TV: Hauppauge WinTV radio (BT878 rev.17)
DVB: Hauppauge DVB-S
hda: Maxtor 92041U4, 19541 MB w/512kb Cache, CHS=2491/255/63, UDMA(33)
hdc: Maxtor 54098U8, 39082 MB w/2048kb Cache, UDMA(33)
hdd: ASUS ATAPI CD-ROM drive, 128kb Cache, UDMA(33)

hdc is used to store video, it's formatted with reiserfs (reiserfs 3.5.23)
-------------------------
running VDR 0.61 and DVB 0.6.0 , no problems, no glitches
(sorry i ain't had time to update, I'm waiting for real mpeg2 PS capable VDR)

actually there's problems: in spite of correct playback with VDR, ALL demux 
or cut tools i've tried (windoze or linux) do choke at some point of the 
recorded AVPES streams: this does makes life difficult for 
editing/cutting/burning on CDR). Life will probably be better with 
all-mpeg2 PS recordings, but how do I deal with the already recorded stuff?

Cheers,
