Hi Doug,

good point. I have two network cards inside the server, I will check
with the other one.

Without too much hope though: Problems startet precisely with the 0.27
upgrade; and it seems to be happening only with certain recordings.

Right now I have one of them: This one recording goes falling out of the
recorded list and back in (being marked with the little cross sign). I
was able to watch it, though, and all other current recordings are there
without making any problem, appearently, and I can stream HD content
across my home without any problem.

I do not have any other type of network problem either.

I rather think it might be something in the database, in the program
description, for example, which causes problems during parsing. I am
using tv_grab_eu_epgdata, and they seem to be changing things every now
and then which cause problems with encoding, right now it seems they
send UTF-8 again which is not parsed correctly, I do not see umlauts
displayed correctly, and maybe it is certain combination of codes which
cause this?

I maybe should check the mysql log...

I will try the network card, though, thanks for the suggestion.
