then the devices have to be made first with something like this:

mknod -m 666 /dev/video c major minor // use usefull numbers for minor
and major

this should be described somewhere in the docs. maybe there is a target
in the makefile that creats the devices, i can't remember and have no
access to a vdr box currently. sorry!
