When there is a recording going on and no more data comes in (due to the disconnected antenna cable), then VDR assumes a buggy driver/card, requests an emergency exit which will then reload the driver.
In the case where this doesn't fix the problem (i. e. it won't help if you disconnected the antenna cable), VDR will continue to record but still sees no data. The result is, it will again request an emergency exit. This scenario will go on until either the timer(s) get(s) outdated or the signal comes back (by having someone connect the antenna cable again).
There has been a discussion regarding pro and cons of emergency exit and the result is that at least from VDR-1.5.18 on you can disable this "feature" in VDR's setup/miscellaneous menu.
Bye.
