The day before I tried to find out if somebody ever had implemented something to prevent vdr to trash the file system buffers. I did this because I hate to wait 20 seconds for vdr to re-read my recordings list.

I tried your patch today and watched the available memory (using top) when replaying. The number stayed the same. Excellent!

However, when I did FF or FR, the number decreased. Ralf, can you reproduce the problem? I am using plain vanilla VDR 1.3.30 with a few small patches (SourceCaps, DeleteResume, burn) and of course your patch.
