Here my dirty little workaround:

commands.conf:

2 DVD abspielen : echo Starte DVD ; echo DVD >/video/source ; killall vdr

runvdr (major parts from VDR-0.83):

DVBDIR="/usr/local/bin"
VDRPRG="/usr/local/bin/vdr"
VDRCMD="$VDRPRG -w 60"
VDRUSR=vdr

KILLPROC="/usr/bin/killall -TERM"

# (cd $DVBDIR; make insmod)

{ while (true) do
    while (true) do
      sudo -u $VDRUSR $VDRCMD
      if test $? -eq 0; then break; fi
      date
      echo "restarting VDR"
      $KILLPROC $VDRPRG
      sleep 5
      (cd $DVBDIR; ./dvb-entladen ; ./dvb-laden)
      date
    done
    case `cat /video/source` in
      DVD)
        /usr/local/bin/playdvd.scr
        ;;
    esac
  done
} &
