[vdr] Live TV freeze when recording starts normal?

[Michal Dobrzynski <michal_dobrzynski@mac.com>]

Hi,

I've seen this mentioned before many times by various people and I'm 
not sure what the status is.

Is the freeze of live TV when a recording starts (does not ALWAYS 
happen but certainly a majority of the time) an acknowledged problem or 
is it one that Klaus is not able to reproduce or identify the cause of?

Perhaps we should start compiling a list of configurations under which 
this happens?

The primary users of VDR in my household are my parents and I basically 
have to be the remote control. They find anything other than channel 
changing FAR too complicated. When the channel freezes (sometimes the 
image is a bit corrupted sometimes it just stops) they NEVER seem 
capable of remembering that simply switching to that channel again will 
fix the problem. Would it perhaps be possible to ad an option to auto 
change channel to the current channel immediately after a recording 
starts on another channel?

Regards,
Michal Dobrzynski

P.S. On the topic of complexity of control is there any chance that the 
OSD (in terms of how it functions rather than how it looks) will become 
configurable? ie full control over which button does what in which 
screen.
