The listener on the other end of this socket is the DXR3-plugin ;-) It
releases the dxr3 under full control.
Normaly vdr should set the DXR3 playmode to
"pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED" (see device.h) which results
in the same release-behavior.

The opening of the socket should simply fail...hopefully.
