[vdr] Re: mplayer plugins 0.8.0

[Guy Roussin <guy.roussin@teledetection.fr>]

Hi,

This is the logs (crash) i get when i use mplayer plugins 0.8.0
and start runvdr from inittab. No problem if i use mplayer 
from shell (logs are fine).
I don't understand the reason of the crash. Perhaps somebody 
can help me to fix this? 

Thanks.

Guy

PS: Thanks Juri for your answer.

Nothing. I found that starting vdr with runvdr in inittab is very quick
but i haven't test starting VDR in a runlevel. I'm going to test this, 
if i can't fix it
