Hi again,

I have a new example of the problem. On Premiere 1 at 22:00 xXx - Triple
X.

When i try to open that EPG event, the event is shown. After that i
cannot control VDR anymore. There is no segfault, VDR only hangs till i
kill it. I have to reload the DVB-Drivers to make VDR work again.

Another example is at PREMIERE 1 at 00:05 Windtalkers. Same problem.

You said that you cant reproduce this, so maybe it is a driver problem,
since you are using the "old" driver. Im using the dvb-kernel driver
with 2.4.21.

Maybe anyone else can try to reproduce this.
