[vdr] Re: unknwon picture type / error in data stream

["Tilo Renkl" <tilo@diredare.de>]

Hi List,

because nobody seems to have an appropriate solution for that
"unknwon picture type / error in data stream"-problem, I wrote
a little bash-script to analyse /var/log/messages and do a
restart in case that error occurs:

while true; do
  tail -f --lines=1 /var/log/messages | ( grep -m1 "ERROR: unknown picture
type" && killall -9 vdr )
done

Just start that script in background.
IMPORTANT: I only get this message at the beginning of a recording,
so a restart at that time is, let's say, OK :-]
