I'm also having this error, only in my case, is not only related to recording, it also happens sometimes when just changing the channel: Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] switching to channel 4 Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [2812] transfer thread ended (pid=1027, tid=2812) Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [2814] TS buffer on device 1 thread ended (pid=1027, tid=2814) Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [2813] buffer stats: 53204 (2%) used Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [2813] receiver on device 1 thread ended (pid=1027, tid=2813) Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] buffer stats: 53580 (2%) used Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] ERROR: can't open filter handle on '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] ERROR: /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0: Too many open files Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] ERROR (dvbdevice.c,687): Too many open files Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] ERROR: can't set PID 4386 on device 1 Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [1027] ERROR (dvbdevice.c,712): Bad file descriptor Feb 20 11:02:11 hera vdr: [2821] transfer thread started (pid=1027, tid=2821) When this happens, I have to keep changing channels until I get a lock and it is completly aleatory, to reproduce this error, I have to make several channel switching until it happens. My systems specs: Ubuntu Edgy, kernel 2.6.17(the one that comes with the distro), I'm also using the dvb driver that come with the distro kernels. vdr-1.4.4, the one pre-patched be hooch(www.hoochvdr.info). regards -- Carlos Javier Habana, CUBA _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
