In short, yes. There is a relatively small amount of SDRAM available for use by the AV7110, which has to be used (amongst other things) for - firmware image - video buffer - teletext re-insertion - on-screen display Whilst the bottom of the VDR display is nicely coloured, the main section of the screen is only 2 bitplanes -> 4 colours, and this is because the SDRAM for the AV7110 is already maxed out... Newer firmware images have increased the available RAM slightly by doing tricks like disabling teletext re-insertion and OSD at the same time - so you can have on or the other. This allows the video buffer to get bigger, and many people have reported an increase in reliability as a result.
