Hi Udo,
First of all thanks a lot for taking the time to write the patch for the event scrolling!!
I've taken vanilla vdr 1.7.15 and applied the extensions patch V3 (see link following)
http://copperhead.vdr-developer.org/downloads/extensionpatch/ExtP-NG-vdr-1.7...
Then I apply the freesat epg patch (necessary to see 7 days of epg on 28e rather than just now and next) where I already don't know what I am doing 100% with eit.c.rej (see my previous post)
http://www.rst38.org.uk/vdr/freesat_20080927_vdr1.7.diff
and finally I try your patch (with --dry-run )

Can you (or some other clever person) help ?
