[vdr] AW: Strange VDR problems

[schimmi@t-online.de (Jürgen Schilling)]

Hi Steffen,

I think this behavior is already fixed in 1.1.25! I had the same problem in
previous versions of VDR. You must also use the newest DVB driver. Version
linuxtv-dvb-1.0.0-pre2 works fine with VDR 1.1.25 on my machine. You can
find it on http://linuxtv.org.

Regards,
Juergen
