I still get errors with your version Marcus :

it won't go all the ways through. I got the latest libdvb + tuxzap from your
website.

Also, do you have any ideas why the drivers seems more sentitive to MPEGs
? Some MPEGs, I'm having a hard time reading them...

here's an older post from Olivier Endriss (o.endriss@gmx.de) replying to
my message...

I've seen similar problems with vdr 1.1.x. 
Some recordings done with vdr 1.0.4 won't replay cleanly. I started 
looking into this and found that the problem disappeared when I 
replaced the firmware (Root, Dpram) of the new driver with that of the 
1.0.4 driver. (Please note that this is not recommended. I did it just 
for debugging.)

Is the new firmware more sensitive to the quality of the data stream?
