  The changes to CA handling in VDR 1.3.37 have broken the
second APID and live Dolby Digital on encrypted channels.

Here's a quick workaround for the problem:

Hi, I am starting to play with the SoftDevice Plugin, and trying to 
start VDR via a BASH script.  All appears to start but it never 
completes, and I don't get any output, and have no ability to Telnet in 
to VDR.  If I start via straight Command Line it works fine.  Is there 
something I am missing?  Here is how I have a script setup.

#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/local/bin
./vdr -P"softdevice -vo dfb: -ao alsa:pcm=default"

That is just an example but it is the jist of it.  Script is executable, 
and I run it with root priveledges.  VDR does appear to start up and I 
get scrolling text etc, but I get no video, nor can I telnet in on port 
2001 to control it.  BUT, if I just run the ./vdr script above with 
those options from command line it runs just fine.  And if I run VDR in 
a bash script with any other plugin and take out the Softdevice plugin 
it works fine.  Just trying to troubleshoot where I might have something 
wrong. 

Thanks for any help.

Well dunno why, but had to run VDR in DAEMON mode in order to run in a 
script.  It runs fine without that mode if you just run it command line, 
but in order to run as a script you run in daemon mode or just end the 
script with an &.  So either way solved my issue.!  For anyone else that 
might encounter it!
