[vdr] Experiences with yaepg plugin with vdr 1.3.15

[Michal Dobrzynski <michal@appl.com.au>]

Hi,

Today I tried the yaepg plugin with the 2.6.10-rc1 kernel and Debian 
packages from Darren Salt (I simply added the yaepg patch to the patch 
list).

I also copied the linux/dvb includes from my kernel to the system 
includes (normally provided by the linux-kernel-headers package). This 
all seemed to work fine when compiling and indeed it initially appeared 
to work well when I tried the plugin. A quartersize window with the 
livetv in it would appear and I could use the arrow keys to move 
through the programs/channels.

Unfortunately after a few key-presses the system would stop responding 
and eventually vdr would restart thanks to the watchdog timer. After 
the restart there were usually serious problems with the OSD and in one 
case I was not able to tune to any channel. The only solution in each 
case seemed to be to unload and reload the dvb-ttpci module.

Has anyone had any experiences with yaepg which may help me track down 
what the problem is? It looks like the perfect epg to me (some tweaking 
like excluding channels would still be required).
