I agree. (Unfortunately) sasc-ng wasn't designed actually with decoding 
of full transponders in mind, both in the buffer aspect, and in the way 
it sends out requests to the card server (simultaneously). I have a box 
with 5 dvb cards, and the only way I can run these is with sasc-ng is 
separate sasc-ng process for each card. And it still crashes within 2-3 
days, with sasc-ng running out of buffer or something similar - 
getstream just doesn't get enough data or gets something that crashes it.
