Hi Rofa, I forgot to mention that i'm using dvbsddevice for outputting the signal via my FF-card. I think that my epia mii 12000 does not have enough horsepower (bit-power? :-) for using the onboard video output-connectors..

This would be a better solution. Hi Marc, I have USE_LIVEBUFFER=1 in /etc/make.conf, but this then does not seem to work correctly? The problem is to know how to tell portage to add this flag to gcc. With the others flags, this is done automatically, probably by the scripts launched in the ebuilds. I don't know how to do the same thing for local patches. Is the forwads/backward feature also part of this problem, or is it just me who has this problem.. I don't have this problem, I can't tell. I can use forward/backward on records and livebuffer. Has vdr-1.7 btw more resource-requirements than vdr-1.6? I still run my vdr on an epia mii 12000 board with 1gb memory. The 1.7 version of vdr has much more problem in keeping the palyback in sync. Also live-tv has problems keeping in sync. The sound is very often seconds behind the image... vdr itself take very low resources, it's the rendering witch require some resources. I use a nvidia card so all this part is handled by vdpau and, even in hd, my cpu has almost no load.

However, beside the actual problem, there also seems to be a serious problem with compiler flags, or otherwise this should have worked. More precisely, VDR itself was compiled with USE_LIVEBUFFER, while at least some plugins were compiled without USE_LIVEBUFFER. This should be fixed too, as there may be more serious issues when headers get interpreted differently by VDR and plugins.
