I use a Hollywood+ for decoding. The card works fine. But there is a plugin 
which uses Mplayer as a decoder for desktops for all who don't own a hardware 
decoder :)

I tried everything now, switched to a older firmware from dec215a but there 
ist no better behavior.

Xine hangs each time and I have to give it a kill -9 to end the sessions. Xine 
shows as a channel c5 ec?? in the window.

Xine and Vdr using a process called [kdvb-fe-0:0] (which Mplayer does not 
use). That's the only difference I can see between this applications.

Could it be a problem of another module like dvb-core?

Rafael
