Hi Roelof,

Yes, I managed to get a debugger on it and can see that the freeze is
occurring while the EPG is being drawn.  I can only assume that it is
deadlocking with the save thread.  Still on it.

With the Beta versions, maybe Scott Evans can answer, he's now in
control of the release/testing process.

Thanks,

Michael

Look like that if I disable the EPG menus, no freezing occurs...
Same if I minimize me-tv (e.g. no EPG output)...

I will examine this further. But the last two days testing (end of
afternoon/ start of evenings only), I observed no freezing (started
me-tv with "me-tv --disable-epg -v"

Did observe lots of lines like below, but I gues this is normal
(probably EPG info in the past)
"24/05/09 21:32:28: Ignoring EPG event 115 (Knooppunt Utrecht), too old"

PS.
What is with the .14 beta something? Just a namechange? Can I compile
it als usual, or should I wait for a normal test-version? Remember I
stil use it on hardy...
