Sorry I don't know what top-posting is so if I am doing it again I apologise. Anyway I didn't use apt-get to get the source or anything debian specific, I just downloaded the source of the vdr homepage and compiled it the normal way. I think there is somthing wrong with the debian package because after compiling it myself it worked fine no problems.
