Has this bug been introduced by the time-shifting firmware?
If this holds true, the bug _can_ be fixed in the firmware.
One of the firmware gurus should have a look what has changed there or
these problems will never end.

BTW, I tested no-signal operation with a DVB-S 1.3 and a DVB-S 2.1.
The 1.3 always crashes after a short time while the 2.1 has no problems
at all. I'll have a look on the tuner output with an oscilloscope as
soon as my time permits.
