[vdr] vdradmin problems



Hi,

i am using vdradmin since some months - great vdr-extension.

Since some days i notice a strange behaviour of the autotimer:

For example i programmed the autotimer to search for 'seven days'
and record it.

The following happened (channel 18 is PRO7):

29.06 01:20:34 EPGTree: 5932 events, 197 broadcasters
29.06 01:20:34 Auto Timer: Scanning for events...
29.06 01:20:37 Auto Timer: Programming Timer "1:18:2:0116:0224:50:99:Seven Days - Das Tor zur Zeit~Verrat im Weißen Haus:"
[]
01.07 17:16:21 EPGTree: 6467 events, 197 broadcasters
01.07 17:16:21 Auto Timer: Scanning for events...
01.07 17:16:23 Auto Timer: Programming Timer "1:18:2:0114:0222:50:99:Seven Days - Das Tor zur Zeit~Verrat im Weißen Haus:"


So vdr will record the same event 2 times with a little timeshift.

The correct recording would be the second one because i programmed
5min startbuffer and 15min endbuffer for recordings. If i look at
the EPG 'seven days' is showing 02.07 1:119-2:07.

This happen with other autotimers too, but only on PRO7.

Is this a fault of PRO7? (It looks as if they correct their epg
some time after sending it).

Is there a way to avoid this?

Another thing wich would help very much to programm autotimers:
exclusions for search-patterns.

i.e. if i programm the keyword 'abba' (because i want to record
something about the group abba) i got a bunch of recordings
called 'abbayes....'. Would be great if i could exclude this
(record keyword 'abba' but _not_ if title include 'abbayes*').
Now the only way to prevent this is to cancel the according autotimer.
