VDR still defaults to start recordings three minutes before scheduled time, right? I wouldn't want to rely my recordings on a clock that is that bad. That's why I have set it to start ten minutes earlier :) The worst I had was on a 286, running 40s off per day. Good thing that this is over.

However, there are some other clock-dependent things in VDR that are not designed to handle larger clock jumps. Usually, clock jumps should be just a few seconds, and only after starting VDR. You should investigate what causes the clock to jump 4 minutes. If your PC clock is THAT bad, its
