hi.
since i get many lines of
read incomplete section - len = 1127, r = 334
when my machine is recording and under heavy CPU load, i was curios what this means. i had a look at the vdr source and saw that there is nearly no code to recover from short reads from the corresponding filedescriptor. my guess is, that this data is not important enougth to be handled more carfully. but what is it for? i searched the web for EIT DVB section filters a.s.o. but couldn't find any useful information. can anybody give me some hints or point me in the right direction regarding section filters?
I'm no expert on section filters, but there is definitely a difference between the ability to properly parse them and the type of dvb card you have. It seems that full featured cards are much more limited in this aspect.
