I don't yet know if this patch is the cause, but I have a setup I am working on which has a FusionHDTV7 dual express and after it has been running for a few days, vdr seems to loose contact with the second tunner. When selecting other channels using vdradmin and then going back to the channel it had been left on for awhile, I get the xine no signal screen. Switching to any other channel works. Using femon I switch tunners while on the channel that no longer works and it starts working. I can go to any channel and swith between the tunners and only get video on the first tunner. The problem may be triggered by recording but sure. The amount of time to pass for it to show changes.
Using vdr-1.7.8
First I thought it was the driver crashing. So I tried restarting vdr, but not the drivers and that got the second tunner back.

Hi,
This patch is for vdr users's which have several cards.
He changes the device selection, by adding two factors in the 'impact' choice :
- prefering a already tuned device
- the last usage time of device
So, all devices are used and zapping time is reduce.
Works better when eitscanner is disable.

JLac
