[vdr] Re : automatic startup of vdr

["domolink morocco" <domolink@iam.net.ma>]

Hi all,

can anyone specify the whole correct sequence of loading vdr what ever was
the version or the various install path for the whole package, or write a
script which will query for the various path  and do the rest ?
another thing that I m really missing is a complete procedure (one piece) on
how do we install vdr with all options , imho, scripting is just nice but
when you must adapt it , it not that obvious (when u r not Lx  fluent) ,
because you must gather little piece of informations across so
 many threads that it is :

1/ umpredictable as of the results
2/ really time consuming
3/ irrespectuous of the tremendous worx it is supposed to represent ... so
much structured programming w/o a procedure ... waouw ! ;-)

well this is aimed to all u , Linvdr gurus, whenever u wanna spend some time
to help us :) that would be nice,
If this information exist already in a previous tread ... when i was not yet
born
plz repost it or make it available somewhere

MedMed
still tryin' and tryin' ...
