That must be something different - vdr crashes really instantly now.
(using dvb-kernel at least)

As my kvdr grabs just fine from the _same_ video-device i assume the 
GrabImage-function is broken in vdr, if the failure is not that obvious to 
fix i might try to re-import the GrabImage function from kvdr to vdr...

Never had grey images either.
