For what it is worth, I can confirm that letting EPG scan channels after the inactivity timeout kills the DVB NEWSTRUCT drivers. In my case make rmmod; make insmod solves the driver lockup. I am using vdr-1.1.8 as the later versions lock up the machine quite quickly and I am too lazy to find out why.
Otherwise the EPG data receiving when manually switching channels in normal operation does work. Jaakko On Fri, 27 Sep 2002, Jeremy Hall wrote: > I will see what I can do.

The more populated the bird, the faster the lockup. -- Foreca Ltd [EMAIL PROTECTED] Pursimiehenkatu 29-31 B, FIN-00150 Helsinki, Finland http://www.foreca.com -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
