I can't manage to find where is directed stdout/stderr of the main vdr
process. I run /etc/init.d/vdr which start-stop-daemon /usr/sbin/runvdr
which forks vdr... Nothing in the way seems to take care of stdout/err, but
I do not find them (neither on the terminal, not in any file). And I'm sure
my plugins have something to tell me...

$ . /etc/default/vdr
$ vdr -v $VIDEO_DIR -c $CFG_DIR -r $REC_CMD -s $SHUTDOWN_CMD $OPTIONS \
<plugins>
I also copied the runvdr command-line as shown by ps, and added the -n
option (don't daemonize) :
