This means stream until about 9,5 MBit/s should work.
I doubt if any German TV station sends streams larger
than that. The largest I know of are the WDR regional
streams (WDR Dortmund/Aachen/etc) with about 6-8
MBit/s.

So this does mean, when I switch to Kernel 2.4 on my
VDR machine, this problem will go away. Ok, I will try
it, but I'm not sure if it is simple because LinVDR
comes without compiler and I don't know how easy it is
to let it run with a 2.4 kernel...

I'm not sure about that, I don't know the internas of
the driver/module. But if someone thinks he/she has
found the problem, I volunteer to test the code.

Thank for that information. I was thinking of buying a
new box for testing. So this is not needed anymore.

Cheers,
Peter
