Hi all, I'm new to vdr and am now trying to set up my first system. I don't have a ff-card and decided to use a NVidia graphics card to connect my system to the TV (I considered using a DXR3, but I want to play DIVX movies as well, for which my computer is too slow). So, i am trying to install the xineliboutput-plugin. I downloaded, compiled and installed the 0.99rc5 version from the homepage, all with no errors. When I try to start vdr as mentioned in the README, the program immediately stops without any message. In var/log/messages, I found the following error message: sudo vdr -P"xineliboutput --local=sxfe --video=xv --noremote" Jul 19 20:50:11 arrakis vdr: [9667] VDR version 1.4.1 started Jul 19 20:50:11 arrakis vdr: [9667] Bigpatch 18.06.2006 is active!
