Thank you for the nice script.

One fix is necessary:



I found only one major difference to the one I've created over time: my
script reboots the system if vdr won't proper start 3 times, perhaps you
can add such feature, currently your script tries 5 times, then reload
modules. Perhaps you could add a toggle to reboot, if reload of modules
fails 3 times.

Regards,
	Peter

Hmm, you're right. Thanks. I've missed that because my VDR is switched 
to vfat on build time.

Maybe optionally, I'll think about it.

Cheers,

Udo

I also have a suggestion.  It is nice to have vdr startup in a screen session
when working remotely.

I'm using something like this:

eval "screen -D -m -S vdr $VDRCMD &"

This starts a screen in detached mode called "vdr" and keeps the same PID.  When
logging in remotely to the machine, vdr can be monitored by typing "sudo screen
-r vdr".  To detach, type: ctrl+a d

Regards.

Nice script, but one question.
After starting 'runvdr&' file with name '-' is created with content:
/bin/setterm

For what is it?

This should work:

WRAPPER="screen -D -m -S vdr"

Or this:

runvdr --wrapper="screen -D -m -S vdr"

Cheers,
