I tried this with VDR 1.5.13 (AFAICS there was no change regarding VPS recordings in vdr.c since 1.4.7) by programming 4 recordings on 2 transponders, all with VPS. I had to increase the VPS margin to have them all within the VPS margin, but the live channel was never switched away. I have 3 DVB-S cards in my system. Does your system have 3 DVB-S cards? You wrote "DVT-S", so I'm wondering if this was just a typo. Can all your DVB-S cards be tuned independent of each other? IIRC you're using the "lnb sharing" patch, which might interfere here.
