You can disable all the cThread::EmergencyExit() calls if you don't want this. Maybe I should disable this by default in a future version - and wait until people start complaining because recordings are broken... ;-)
I personally don't believe/experience that driver problems cause broken recordings nowadays or have been causing them in the past year or two.
Well, at least I will re-enable (or reverse-patch) this feature back into my VDR, as it saved many recordings for me. This fallback is only triggered if a scheduled recording is getting not a single byte of data for at least one minute, so there's IMHO something seriously wrong about it. And in many cases, a clean restart fixes this for me - because for me its usually a malfunction of the tuner / multiswitch communication, and a power down / power up of all LNB power helps.
