[vdr] update 1.4 to 1.6 - cutting recordings makes vdr unresponsive

2008-06-09 Thread Hanno Zulla
Hi,

I have updated my vdr:

Old: Celeron 850 MHz, 256 MB Ram, very slow but silent PATA disk,
Debian, vdr 1.4.x (e-tobi)

New: AMD Athlon X2 2,1 GHz, 2 GB Ram, standard SATA disk, Ubuntu, vdr
1.6.x (self-compiled from e-tobi's repository)

The hardware should be much faster now, but vdr turns very slow and
unresponsive whenever it cuts a recording in the background. vdr reacts
to a button on the remote with notable delay.

(I don't remember this behaviour with the old vdr setup.)

Any idea where to look for this issue?

Thanks,

Hanno

On Gentoo there is a USE flag that adds a patch to vdr that solves this
problem in one way.
package: media-video/vdr-1.6.0_p1-r1
USE flag: cutterlimit   : Limit IO bandwith used for cutting
