The problem appeared with "Tagesschau" on ARD. Not every recording on
ARD or ZDF has buffer problems, but when it is live and maybe even 16:9,
it is very likely that it happens. And there is no chance to do an
additional recording on the same transponder without problems.
I always use very recent drivers from hg, never older than 3 weeks. I
even patched it with the performance + refactoring patches
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=51207
from Oliver ("UFO") which seems to make it a little bit better.
Ah, sorry, I forgot to mention that I also have applied that patch.

F12623 ? where do you get it from? has it ever been released officially?
I remember that Werner mentioned F12623 in vdrportal in June, but the
last version which was posted there is F22623 from May
Ooops - I thought this would have been made public by now.
@Werner: what's the status of firmware version F12623?
Klaus
