[vdr] GRAB always gives gray image

[Jan Ekholm <chakie@infa.abo.fi>]

Hi,

I experimented a bit with the SVDRP command GRAB to get screenshots, but
it always seems to return a solid gray image, such as this one:

    http://www.infa.abo.fi/~chakie/media/dvb/test.jpg

Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever got anything else than a gray
image, not even on older VDR versions. Doing 2-3 GRAB:s in a row makes no
difference, nor does tuning to some other channel. I do the GRAB with a
simple:

   grab /tmp/test.jpg

VDR logs:

  vdr[10157]: grabbing to /tmp/grab.jpg (JPEG 255 768 576)

so it all looks ok to me. Is this something expected or do I do something
weird? VDR seems to work ok otherwise. This is with 1.3.5 and the
recommended DVB drivers using a Hauppauge DVB-c 2.1 or 2.2 card.

Regards,
    Jan Ekholm
