[vdr] tosvcd 0.9 sometimes skips first .vdr file

[Christoph Martin <martin@uni-mainz.de>]

Hi,

I am using vdr 1.0.4 and tosvcd 0.9 to create SVCD images.

Sometimes in the process of trying the different qualities tosvcd 
restarts mpeg2enc but does not correctly seek to the start of the 
recording. It only seeks to the start of the current .vdr file resulting 
in a SVCD image which starts in the middle of the movie. I am not shure, 
but it might happen, because we are already in the second part of a vdr 
cutting. The same happens with an already cut movie and with an uncut 
movie which has a marks.vdr file.

My settings are the following:

.vdr file size: 700M
call to tosvcd: tosvcd -s 769

You can see in the log below, that while in quality 6 at 25:43 a new 
.vdr file is opened. At 30:59 there is a reopen of 002.vdr because of a 
cut mark. At 37:13 is a restart but no reopen of 001.vdr.

Do you have any idea, what the problem could be?

Thanks for the good software anyway.

Christoph
