VDR + hdtv has been pretty stable for me for some time now. The few problems I ran into (with VDPAU) were quickly fixed by the xine-vdpau devs. I'm not the only one either, I know a bunch of guys doing the same. It's a highly discussed topic and I'm honestly surprised to hear someone suggest

If you don't want VDR to record when pause is pressed, how do you expect to resume play from the point at which you pressed pause? Obviously it has to record the stream somewhere since there is no live tv caching in VDR. Next, you _do_ have the option to delete these pause/instant recordings, you
