My guess was that maybe the channels have changed in such a way that they
need to be newly added and the old ones are obsolete. You could make a backup
copy of your current channels.conf file and restore that one after doing this
test.

I also have DVB-T here and no such problems.

Please try the attached patch. It was originally made to fix a problem
with DVB-S, but maybe it also fixes your problem.

I've changed to "5" and it only slowed down things, but slowly all of 
channels became OBSOLETE again.
I didn't try patch because I use VDR from repository and "OBSOLETE" 
inside name doesn't bother me so much. Anyway thank you for help.
