I've problems when implementing the latest 1.4.2.-1 Patch. Here's the problem: I used VDR-Admin to change a timer setting. Every time I try to save the changed timer, VDR crashes, please see attached strace.

There had been a "free(aux);" added in that patch in timers.c in the assignment operator ("=") function. Probably it didn't took an earlier (conditional?) free() into account and such rans into a glibc-assertion.

Changing the "free(aux);" to "if(aux) free(aux);" would probably care for that (resembling the earlier behaviour).
