Hi,
I got a report of a user of my distri with the following log entries:
Mar 6 13:30:53 [vdr] channel 16 (3sat) event 13:30 'Vis-à-vis: Leoluca Orlando' status 4 Mar 6 13:31:13 [vdr] connect from 127.0.0.1, port 1055 - accepted Mar 6 13:32:15 [vdr] PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting!

He was watching television and was definitely doing nothing with the remote control. On the VDR-Portal I found no hints about this problem, but some logs which are showing exactly the same behaviour: Watchdog timer one minute after a connect.
Can anyone give me any hints, what can cause this problem ?
Might be helpful to know what that SVDRP connection was doing (or trying to do).

For sure this would be helpful, but I do not have any glue at this moment what can cause this connect. I think vdr should not be killed by a connection, no matter what it tries to do .

I would say this is VDRAdmin polling its EPG data. I've seen EPG pulls that lasted 2min45s probably because VDRAdmin was swapped to disk.
