Hi!
I have been having this weird random problem. VDR becomes very unresponsive and starts skipping frames etc, then when I use "top" I see that python process is using 100% of CPU..
This seems to be the vdr-frontend. There is a python script in /etc/init/vdr-frontend.conf
If I kill the python process, vdr-frontend dies but becomes back soon. The high cpu load is gone, but will come back later.
This is yavdr 0.5.
I'm tempted to remove the whole frontend, why is it needed? I'm not using xbmc and my VDR box is running 24h, it would probably work just fine with VDR just started directly.. Is vdr-frontend doing something useful?
