I don't know about it restarting. The crashing with loss of signal is suposed to be a safe guard against creating blank recordings. Seems like a bad idea to me to. Just delete the bad recordings, don't crash the system. Here is the fix we've been using: Locate the line in recorder.c and comment it

2007-09-29 Thread Christian Wieninger
Hi, me and Rolf Ahrenberg noticed that there seems to be a problem with cMenuEditStrItem in vdr-1.5.9. To reproduce it just call the timer edit menu and hit 'left' on the directory item or any other cMenuEditStrItem object. The following patch should fix this: --- vdr-1.5.9/menuitems.c 2

Patch is vdr-1.3.22-Source-dependant-NewChannels-Insertation and it applies quite correctly to vdr 1.4.7. Compiling is ok. Now I should test it. Francesco ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
