i've made the same experience as i-loop, so no logs or report, it just was Kabel1 to Vox, but everything else equals!

Can you test again with latest SVN, please?
It's still working for me.

So the popup should still be there?
At the moment, when I'm watching tv and a recording is about to start, the tv freezes without any warning... Very anoying when watching live HD Euro 2008 with your friends! :s So with me, it's DEFINATELY recording another channel when watching tv...unfortunately without warning.
I thought the devs removed the popup...Any suggestions of how I can get the popup back again?

The popup will be back in the next SVN. You have answered to an 2 years old thread regarding 0.2.0.0 RC4 release.

I just checked out the source code. For some reason the code for this popup window & logic is commented out
Alas, there is however no explanation what is the reason that the popup is disabled.

I've had problems with this issue too and it's really annoying..
