Also, my vdr can take 10-15secs just to start up, and xine frontend will bail out during that time, too. Since frontend is being run on unattended TV box (read: no keyboard) it is cumbersome to restart xine every time this happens. easy way around this: tell xine to exit when the stream finishes and run itin a loop. I am running the following in a shell loop. the important optionsbeing --no-splash and --auto-play=fhq, so xine starts immediately playing thestream and exits as soon as the stream finishese (e.g. when vdr restarts) orwhen xine chokes on a "faulty" stream. I also sometimes saw runaway xineprocesses, which still hold the xv/xvmc port, so everything called xine iskilled forcibly afterwards. xine $VERBOSE --aspect-ratio 4:3 --geometry 1024x768 --no-splash --no-lirc \ -V xxmc -A alsa --post vdr --auto-play=fhq \ vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_peskillall -9 xine -- c uhenning _______________________________________________vdr mailing listvdr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
