If we can be sure that between clre and adding the external epg no event comes into vdr by cEIT, means it can be ensured that this holds true for any stations external epg is used. On a side note to this, slightly OT: Thinking: What if a plugin could provide the EPG functionality for vdr ? In the long run it might be more useful if a more advanced merge from the different epgs source could happen at submission of the epg. The processing should happen in a seperate thread ( Having external epg for 18 days sums up to approx. 70MB, where vdr runs into emergency exit at the moment, if processed at once.) Current starting time from DVB might still be interesting, even if external epg is a lot better. Having epg in a DB (sqlite,mysql) might also be nice. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
