The same problem appears with all HD (H.264) channels, be it BBC HD or HBO
HD or anything else.
Could anyone please look into it? :-(
I've just read a post from another user who had this problem.
Apparently his channels.conf contained wrong info and enabling 'update
names& pids' (or whatever it's called) fixed it.
Wow, great, that fixed it! Thanks!
I think, however, that this should be either noted somewhere or the VDR should
handle the error more gracefully...
By default VDR updates the pids automatically.
If you turn that off and thus VDR doesn't get any data from
a channel it wants to record, it assumes the driver is "stuck"
and performs an "emergency exit" to allow for a driver reload.
You can turn that off, too, by setting "Emergency exit" to "no"
in the "Miscellaneous" section of the "Setup" menu.
