Re: VDR not cleaning .del directories

I'm starting to think that maybe my problem IS caused entirely by this
softhddevice bug. Because my softhddevice keep freezing quite
frequently, I have added a shutdown command that detaches softhddevice
and leaves vdr running. And then when I watch something, I'm pressing
buttons and using menus and there might be timers recording etc, so
vdr never becomes idle enough to do the housekeeping?

I tried to understand the code, but I'm having difficulties. :) in
vdr.c, only place that sets LastInteract is this:

        Interact = Menu ? Menu : cControl::Control(); // might have
been closed in the mean time
        if (Interact) {
           LastInteract = Now;
           eOSState state = Interact->ProcessKey(key);
           if (state == osUnknown && Interact != cControl::Control()) {

So.. Does this mean that softhddevice's dummy player has menu open all
the time? softhddevice.cpp doesn't have really anything menu-related
in the dummy player, all those methods must be inherited from main vdr
class.

Only thing that looks suspicious is this, dummy player's ProcessKey:

eOSState cSoftHdControl::ProcessKey(eKeys key)
{
    if (SuspendMode == SUSPEND_NORMAL && (!ISMODELESSKEY(key)
            || key == kMenu || key == kBack || key == kStop)) {
        delete Player;

        Player = NULL;
        Resume();
        SuspendMode = NOT_SUSPENDED;
        return osEnd;
    }
    return osContinue;
}

Should it really return osContinue all the time?
