No, but I have the auto shutdown thing turned off because when signal is bad on 1 channel, it would disrupt everything with frequent restarts and as I recall, it often didn't restart. Might have been xine or something that stopped with the restart, I don't recall. Plus, restarting VDR in this case wouldn't fix the problem because it's a hardware crash that requires the drivers be restarted.
That's what a properly configured runvdr script does if you fill in its LoadDriver() and UnloadDriver() functions.

One card finally died and had to be replaced which helped, but I know I have to leave power save off on those cards because the tuners get flaky when it's used and seems to be what killed the card. Poor craftsmanship.

... A problem I have run into before is not that a channel is down, though that also happens, but that a tuner is down. I've had tuner crashes, but vdr just stayed with that tuner/chanel and recorded nothing. I currently have 5 ATA tuners. 2 Dual tuner cards and a single.
Didn't VDR report a "video data stream broken" and perform a restart?
