Interesting. Yes, it appears to be a demux bug. I've looked at changes in 
av7110* and saa7146* between old and newstruct and changes are very 
minimal. Reworking them doesn't fix it.

I have up to this point always excluded from checking anything else but 
specific av7110 stuff, because dxr3's don't have this problem . Am I right 
in assuming dxr3 with vdr does not use linux-dvb drivers at all. There is 
an em8300 but it's not used, right? This has caught me out before, was I 
always thought "hang on, dxr3's don't have this problem, but use the same 
base code so it's av7110 specific". I was wrong all along I guess...

If that is the case - well, a bit of an inferno really, because then it's 
most likely to be one of dmxdev.c, dvb_demux.c, dvb_filter.c or 
dvb_frontend.c and they have changed quite considerably. If anyone has 
ideas how to pin-point this with anything better than trial and error, 
please let me know.
