[vdr] vdr 1.1.X and mencoder

[Bernd Juraschek <vdr@pingu.gnuu.de>]

Hi,

I'm using vdr 1.1.X for recording and mencoder 0.90pre7 for 
DivX encoding. Mencoder is called in the following way:

cat 0*.vdr | mencoder ... -

This way mencoder can't detect the correct input file format 
and aborts. Calling

mencoder ... 001.vdr

instead works correctly. I think this problem is new with 
vdr 1.1.X because older recordings can be converted by the 
first command line.

A workaround is to concatenate the *.vdr files and call 
mencoder with the resulting file, but this requires too 
much disk space and is very slow.

Thanks for help,
Bernd
