I have been testing the latest VDR 1.7.10 and 1.7.5 versions and both have following problem I haven't seen on VDR 1.6.x version. The problem is that after starting VDR (with or without OSD GUI frontend), it looses a lock on channel after 60 seconds or so. Is there some worker process which kicks in VDR every 60 seconds? Maybe EPG related process?

VDR does start scanning for EPG data after a while if inactivity. To rule out this one, please set "EPG scan timeout" to 0 in the "Setup/EPG" menu.

Hi,

Thanks for the tip. This seems to do the trick. Channel lock is no more lost after the first 60 secs of inactivity after bootup.

I have directed EPG runtime files to TMP folder, so I guess this contributes to this problem because at boot time there is no EPG files at all.
