had a look at the code in dvbdiparser.cpp
apologies if this is way off base (not understanding the code can cause that)
i see in DVBSIParser::AddPid() an open() call and an ioctl call which if it 
fails does not close the fd. could this be a problem as i seem to recall the 
message i got was something about "failing to open section filter".

sorry for the vagueness, but it is 2am and i wanted to get this out before i 
crashed.
