Version 1.1.33 with driver 2003-05-24 runs rock solid here.

I just spent a whole evening watching old and new recordings, doing
time shift and skipping forward/back and doing fast forward and back - without
the slightest problem.

My primary device is a Siemens DVB-S 1.3, and the secondary device is a WinTV NOVA-S.
Could it be that those amoung oyu who report problems have DVB-C or DVB-T cards?
Just an idea, no real reason for asking...
