Following is my log when starting vdr with BBC World, then switching to Initial, then back to BBC World (using -l 3): May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] cTimeMs: not using monotonic clock - resolution is too bad (0 s 10000 000 ns) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] VDR version 1.7.0 started May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] codeset is 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' - unknown May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] found 0 locales in ./locale May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'deu,ger' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'slv,slo' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'ita' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'dut,nla,nld' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'por' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'fra,fre' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'nor' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'fin,smi' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'pol' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'esl,spa' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'ell,gre' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'sve,swe' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'rom,rum' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'hun' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'cat,cln' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'rus' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'hrv' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'est' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'dan' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'cze,ces' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'tur' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] no locale for language code 'ukr' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading plugin: ./PLUGINS/lib/libvdr-xine.so.1.7.0 May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/setup.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] ERROR: unknown config parameter: MenuButtonCloses = 0 May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] unknown locale: '0' May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/sources.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/diseqc.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/channels.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/timers.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/svdrphosts.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/remote.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/keymacros.conf May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] reading EPG data from /video/epg.data May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5298] video directory scanner thread started (pid=5296, tid=5298) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] probing /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5298] video directory scanner thread ended (pid=5296, tid=5298) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] device 1 provides: DVBS DSS DVBS2 May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5297] video directory scanner thread started (pid=5296, tid=5297) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] found 1 video device May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5297] video directory scanner thread ended (pid=5296, tid=5297) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] initializing plugin: xine (0.8.2): Software based playback using xine May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] setting primary device to 2 May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] assuming manual start of VDR May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] SVDRP listening on port 2001 May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] setting current skin to "sttng" May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] loading /home/vagos/vdr-1.4.7/video/themes/sttng-default.theme May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] starting plugin: xine May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5299] tuner on device 1 thread started (pid=5296, tid=5299) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5300] section handler thread started (pid=5296, tid=5300) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5301] XineRemote control thread started (pid=5296, tid=5301) May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5301] Entering cXineRemote thread May 10 19:42:07 vagoshome vdr: [5296] ERROR: remote control XineRemote not ready!
