IMHO the alert function should work based on the time-since-boot clock, 
not relative to the calendar clock. The watchdog did not fire on my 
machine while I was playing with the clock.

However, there are some other clock-dependent things in VDR that are not 
designed to handle larger clock jumps. Usually, clock jumps should be 
just a few seconds, and only after starting VDR.

You should investigate what causes the clock to jump 4 minutes. If your 
PC clock is THAT bad, its probably worth dumping the mainboard - you do 
want recordings in time, do you?
If this is due to different clocks on transponders, you should restrict 
the clock sync to a single transponder. (settings -> EPG)

Cheers,

Udo
