Oh yeah, right. But it's a crash, if the software caused the
inconsistences byitself - like here. ;-< By adding and removing
timers during normal operation.

Found it. Was NID/TID Problem. Until this is not used and
usable, vdr should ignore those settings and presume
healty "0" defaults - even there is a '1' in the channels.conf,
because users may be bugged by an old" scan" tool  or
like mine by a eMailed channels.conf. ;-<

Until then, all NID/TIS should be ste to 0 !

After getting CVS updated scan tool, I scribbled a 'short' 
perl tool to re-generate a channels.conf using 'scan' and
a few rules to clean up for ASTRA/Sat use for Germany.
