OK, then you seem to have a VDR problem. As long as "grab" doesn't work,
vdradmin will have the same problem, because it uses the "grab" command as
well to save the JPG (see function "grab_picture" in vdradmind.pl).

Have a look if the video devices are existing (/dev/video0 etc.) and working,
vdr uses these devices for grabbing the images. Of course, this requires
Video4Linux support in the kernel.

Good luck,
