Comment (by warpme@…):

 Karl,
 Honestly speaking I not need it anymore :-). I developed this patch in
 times when active EIT scanner causes deadlocks in BE when LiveTV is
 launched. Time windowed EIT scanner allowed me to minimalize such
 deadlocks. Fortunately - at some point in time - Daniel fixed this bug and
 now I have continuously running EIT scanner without negative issues with
 LiveTV. Speaking about this patch current usefulness: I can imagine
 someone wants to setup BE for kind of batch processing at night
 (transcodes, etc) and have it off for rest of day. In such case it might
 be wise to set active EIT scanner in this time window with short idle
 timeout setting (as this will allow to gather as much EIT data as possible
 in short period of time - when BE is alive). This is for sure corner and
 little artificial case...
