I've exit by restart in OSD-Menu which should return 1, starting the
restart-loop of my init-script. Blank vdr returns 1, but vdr started up
with plugins returns 0.

I also have strange problems with the command-line. VDR complains about
things like "unrecognized option: --mount=mount.sh" although it loads
the mp3-plugin or other plugins. vdr --help shows the plugin and it's
options fine.

My init-script is ready for a week now and it certainly could replace
runvdr quite well (it has extensive error-recovery and logging - I'll
post it on the list when it works), but I'm struggling with the
command-line.

I've tested a lot of strings with quotations, (back-)slashes, etc. but
either vdr complains about wrong plugin-options or returns wrong
exit-codes. It also could be some kind of parsing-error.

Could you give me an example of a command-line with several plugins and
several options for each plugin which definitely works for you?
