[vdr] Re: vdr crashes

[jhall@UU.NET (Jeremy Hall)]

I think there's some sort of memory munging going on in the eit code. I'm
not sure, but I have seen similar results a few hours ago using
1.0.2.  Maybe it accounts for our wierd activities in 1.1.x.  Have anybody
recently reported memory leaks, memory issues, or pointer walk issues
lately?

I get a lot of vdr-related mail, so I don't have time to read it all.
