Hi, I have been running VDR as a daemon started via init script for some years now. I am currently using version 1.6.0-2. The problem is, that every now and then VDR doesn't start when I boot the server. The culprit seems to be lcdproc plugins, which for some reason cannot always connect to the LCDd daemon. In VDR's log it shows up like this:
OK: Sep 18 16:31:49 vdrkone2 vdr: [4890] starting plugin: lcdproc Sep 18 16:31:49 vdrkone2 vdr: connection to LCDd at localhost:13666 established. Sep 18 16:31:49 vdrkone2 vdr: LCD output thread started (pid=4890), display size: 2x16 NOT OK: Sep 18 19:05:45 vdrkone2 vdr: [4876] starting plugin: lcdproc Sep 18 19:05:45 vdrkone2 vdr: [4876] stopping plugin: femon Sep 18 19:05:45 vdrkone2 vdr: [4876] stopping plugin: burn Now, the question is, does this really cause VDR to shut down? And if so, should VDR behave in some other way in such a case? Or is it just lcdproc plugin that causes such a behaviour? Is it possible for VDR to retry starting plugin which failed to start? -Petri _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
