Very much agreed. I`m very happy with the current solution!

To adress the crashes of vdr (not the driver!)(vdr0.68, driver 0.8, 1
card): 
I have them every 2-3 days. When this happens I get "Speicherfehler" at
the console.  I start vdr via a small perl script. 

Restarting vdr is enough, restarting the driver is not necessary! 
If at that time a timer was recording, recording continues until the
drive is full. That means I have a very long but fine recording.
EPG-scan is enabled, but often isn`t active at time of the crash.

Do you know of this "Speicherfeheler" or should I try to look closer? 
When reading the last mails I was a bit confused since it sounds like
there are only driver problems. I think we should try to look close and
distinguish the diffrent problems.

Happy recording
