[vdr] Video Data Stream broken

[Frederick Page <fpage@thebetteros.oche.de>]

Hi everybody,

now it's reproducable: I was watching an (PAL) SVCD-compliant mpeg2
file with mplayer (1.0pre2) within vdr 1.2.6 with current mp3/mplayer
plugin, Elchi-AIO3c.

VDRadmin inserted an autotimer (because "Roseanne" suddenly showed up
in the EPG) to record from 0:04 h. When the actual programme started,
mplayer ended abruptly and I got just a black screen in VDR.

The log reflects this (I shortened some lines for better visibility):

Nov 17 23:45:27 localhost vdr[8203]: timer 2 added
Nov 17 23:45:28 localhost vdr[8203]: closing SVDRP connection
Nov 17 23:45:50 localhost vdr[12251]: mplayer: player thread started (...)
Nov 17 23:45:50 localhost vdr[12250]: mplayer: mplayer child started (...)
(...)
Nov 18 00:04:00 localhost vdr[12372]: receiver thread started on device 1 
Nov 18 00:04:00 localhost vdr[12251]: mplayer: player thread ended (pid=12251)
Nov 18 00:04:00 localhost vdr[8203]: timer 2 (121 0004-0040 'Roseanne' start
Nov 18 00:04:00 localhost vdr[8203]: Title: 'Roseanne' Subtitle: 'Comedy'

Nov 18 00:04:29 localhost vdr[8203]: ERROR: Kanal nicht verfügbar!
Nov 18 00:04:31 localhost vdr[12375]: ERROR: video data stream broken
Nov 18 00:04:31 localhost vdr[12375]: initiating emergency exit
Nov 18 00:04:31 localhost vdr[8203]: emergency exit requested - shutting down

Can somebody else reproduce this? Watching some file with mplayer when
a timer "kicks in"? Luckily VDR restarts (after watchdog-timeout) and
records just fine after that.

Kind regards  Frederick
