Meanwhile I managed to use LIRC and an IR transmitter diode to send channel switch commands to my Digibox, so all would be ready for a complete integration of an external analog video source into the VDR system - if only the driver wouldn't mess up the second and every following TS recording... Is there really nobody here on this list who could at least try the above tests, so I would know if this is really a driver issue or maybe I'm doing something wrong? I've been looking at the kfir.c code over and over again, but I can't seem to find anything that could be changed to fix this :-( Klaus -- _______________________________________________________________ Klaus Schmidinger Phone: +49-8635-6989-10 CadSoft Computer GmbH Fax: +49-8635-6989-40 Hofmark 2 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] D-84568 Pleiskirchen, Germany URL: www.cadsoft.de _______________________________________________________________
