Thanks for the tip. I found a hint in /var/log/syslog
It was a typo error!

The filename was /video0/plugins/stremdevhosts.conf
instead of /video0/plugins/streamdevhosts.conf

I would have expected a warning in /var/log/messages, like:

streamdev: WARNING file streamdevhosts.conf not found

Anyway, thanks for all the help!
