Actually it _is_ only shown when a timer is about to be started.
Could it be that you have programmed overlapping timers and there are not enough
DVB cards to run them all? In that case there could be many such messages.

To fix this you could add the line

   if (!Timer->pending)

before the line

   dsyslog(LOG_INFO, "system time seen is %s", ctime(&Now))

in vdr.c.
