We're all hoping that the new driver will once become at least as 
good as the old one... ;-)

If you have only _one_ DVB card you can only get the EPG data from the
current transponder. If you switch through the various channels the
EPG data of the different transponders will be collected and will be 
available later. After 5 hours of inactivity from the remote control
VDR will start an automatic scan for the EPG data.
