do you mean 1.7.28?

 I also deactivated the epgsearch plugin which I am normally using for the
 following tests.
 The PC has a Dual Core CPU with 2 x 1,8GHz and 2GB RAM.

 I attached the syslog lines of the last VDR start-up.
 To my shame, I can't say when it started to use so much CPU. I set up MRTG

 actual CPU graph is very strange (25% load the last 5 hours and also now,

 This shows half user / half system load. Pretty strange.

I guess you need to check where VDR spends its time. You can use for
example OProfile for that.


Thanks,

Paul

Hello,

Has the machine been rebooted since the leap-second on July 1? My VDR 
machine began to use much more CPU on that date (load average  6 when 
recording!) but a reboot fixed it.

Thank you very much. After I rebooted my server, VDR consumes at
maximum 2.0% CPU during recording, so it looks like this was really
the problem.

As I had no real crash on 1. July I thought there is no problem (I
thought, either crash or no problem at all... x_x)
