Hallo Klaus,
I have tried testing VDR 1.3.18 and it seem that (vanilla) VDR has a
problem with saving and reading epg.dataon some systems. This is also
happening on other systems, see this thread on vdrportal.de :
http://www.vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=28280
Somehow a "./" is appended in front of the path+filename given to vdr :
ERROR: .//etc/vdr/epg.data.$$$: No such file or directory
ERROR (epg.c,896): No such file or directory
It probably is a bug with the "-E" switch doing this, unfortunatly I
could not test that yet, but I will post on the vdrportal URL above and
here on Monday if I find out something more ..
This is part of the line used for starting my VDR :
su -p -c /usr/local/src/VDR/vdr -c /etc/vdr -v /video0 -E
/etc/vdr/epg.data -s /usr/local/bin/vdrshutdown -L
/usr/local/src/VDR/PLUGINS/lib -r /usr/local/bin/nq.sh ...
Anyone here having the same problem ?
I am using the -E switch with vdr-1.3.18 and it seems to be working fine. Why are you setting the
config directory twice?
