Try upgrading your bash.  I also had problems with this but after
upgrading bash everything works correct.  I now use 2.05b-12 (Debian
package from sarge/sid), while I had problems with 2.05a-11 (Debian
package from woody).

And don't forget, that vdrconvert uses /bin/sh, while all the scripts
require /bin/bash.  So you will run into trouble, if /bin/sh doesn't
point to /bin/bash but to /bin/dash or something like this...

Tschoeeee
