I didn't really have time to debug the source of the problem (updates of vdr, ImageMagick, kernel...). I choose a "brute force" work-around using TVTIME (distributed with Fedora Core): # run tvtime-command to create a png image tvtime-command SCREENSHOT "bg.png" sleep 1 # use ImageMagick to covert image to jpeg convert ~/bg.png ~/bg.jpeg # move bg.jpeg from home directory to directly specified on command line, i.e. . mv ~/bg.jpeg "$@" # call image viewer, such as EyeOfGnome, to verify image is ok. eog "$@"/bg.jpeg Spero che questo ti aiuta in qualche modo! - Sean
