 I conclude your current situation is, that right now you do not get any
 dvd-related messages, since you are not subscribed.
 
 I propose, that you subscribe, and do one of the following.
 
 ...
 • Or set up a filter in your mail program to delete all messages from
 this list except they have [DVB] or so in the subject line and make sure
 the subject of your messages contains this word.

Thanks, I'll do that.
I'll filter on ^Subject:.*dvb (case insensitive).

 Is the attached patch the right cure?

void cThread::SetPriority(int Priority)
{
 -  if (setpriority(PRIO_PROCESS, 0, Priority)  0)
 +  if (setpriority(PRIO_PROCESS, getuid(), Priority)  0)
 LOG_ERROR;
}

This is definitely wrong. setpriority expects a process ID together with 
PRIO_PROCESS, not an user ID. You could try to use getpid() instead. 
However, passing 0 as second parameter is officially allowed and is 
interpreted as the current process too.

The cause is more likely that the process is not allowed to set the 
requested priority. To investigate this, you can dump the old and new 
priority value to the log files. Looks something like this: (untested)

dsyslog(%s thread setpriority %i to %i, Thread-description, 
getpriority(PRIO_PROCESS, 0), Priority);


Cheers,

Udo

Oh yes, you are right, I didn't read the man page careful enough,
sorry. getuid() makes only sense with PRIO_USER.

I've solved this by tweaking the capabilities.

google: vdr-1.6.0-cap_sys_nice.patch
