Hallo,
since I could add a great improvement I release a new version of the eggtimer plugin.
Improved message displaying for VDR >= 1.3.37. (thanks to Tobias Grimm for bringing light into this)
Any problems with VDR crashes related to eggtimer OSD-messages should be gone with VDR >= 1.3.37 and vdr-eggtimer >= 0.9.3
It's a difficult topic because displaying OSD-messages from a background thread (like eggtimer) is available since VDR 1.3.37. Earlier versions do not offer secure ways to display a message from a background thread.
I strongly recommend to use VDR >= 1.3.37 when using OSD message eggtimers.
I do not make any efforts to improve message displaying for older VDR < 1.3.37 because we are shortly before 1.4 release.

The eggtimer seems to have trouble when I set a date/time SWITCH like this:
SWITCH;2;240;[channel];[name]
When I look at the template from VDR, the time is wrong. It comes up as 7:20 not 4:00. Am I doing something wrong? It like its adding 3 hours and 20 minutes to the time.
Best Regards.
