2002-03-19 Thread Zierath Bernd
Hi, same here, but I think it is maybe a problem with vdr, the cSIProcessor did a scan over all channels after some idle time, and if you have a channel with a tuning error it get's stuck. Regards Bernd My Config: Siemens DVB-C 1.3 Siemsns-dvb-0.9.4. driver from cvs Redhat 7.2 Kernel 2.4.9
