Hi,
I upgraded from 1.3.22+0.7.2-network to 1.3.23+0.7.3-network. The new version seems to have more problems than the old one. The new problems that were introduces are:
1) live TV viewing has "tsirp"-sounds all the time (1-2 times / minute)
2) forward and backwards rewinds are completely broken. They rewind for few seconds (badly) and then the rewind gets stuck completely. Pressing play will take a very long time until the recording starts to play again.
But, the most serious problem (0.7.2 and 0.7.3) is that sometimes something gets stuck with no apparent reason, then I get syslog full of ring buffer overflows, and this seems to block something inside VDR which prevents timers from starting. Not good...
I guess I'll have to go (at least temporarily) back to the old version...

try defining WRAP_THRESHOLD 200000 in xineDevice.c - this helped a lot in my case. (with non-network xine)
If I understood correctly from Reinhard Nissls explanation, having a difference of Audio and Video time stamps more than 120000 (the original value) causes the demuxer or something else to break. I did a couple of statistics collection rounds yesterday (http://www.netlab.hut.fi/~kex/vdr-xine.html) that suggest that having a difference more than 120000 is quite usual, but 150000 might already suffice. (The weird graph for "Nelonen" is due to the xine not being able to recover - the visual effect is no sound, only still images)
