Then adjust you satellite dish so that you get your signal more stable.
Often times I must unload and reload the driver modules to resolve this. Usually by the time I start losing the driver, I am getting many crunchies in the audio and the words are no longer intelligable.
sure.
I can try to revert that change you committed, but I don't know that it
would help me.
no, it would not since you don't use this tuner.
Please try to find out which parts of those patchsets improve your situation and report.I also see crashes that are not reported when there is heavy EPG activity and vdr is used. for example: Dish Network transmits two days of EPG on 12486, and I have modified the SetFilt code in vdr to special-case a TID of 0xff to mean no table filter at all and to allow all tables on pid 0x12 through. I experimented with some of the ``optional'' patches that are supposed to improve interrupt stability, indeed things are better, but the driver is still capable of crashing when vdr is running on a channel that contains all the EPG. Dish Network is unique in the States because it has over 1,000 channels worth of data being transmitted in this way, all with unique individual programs (from the standpoint of the EPG. they're actually zillions of copies of the same stuff but they haven't figured out how time shifting descr works yet)
