I am using vdr-1.3.26. I have been playing with some patches like Bigpatch and
have done some code on my own to try and debug the problem.  This snippet should
give you a better idea of what that line is in dvbdevice.c

--SNIP--

if (ioctl(Handle->handle, DMX_SET_PES_FILTER, &pesFilterParams) < 0) {
           LOG_ERROR;   <-- line 819
           return false;
           }
