That problem coincides with my problem of recordings with length 0 and filesize of few megabytes. Didn't know that it comes from a crashed tuner. If I remember right, there was no "video data stream broken" message and after enabling the automatic shutdown I realized, that the vdr waits until no recording is active before initiating the restart. So the automatic restart did not really help anything, especially in environments, where multiple parallel recordings are most probably to happen. kind regards Gero _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
