I had some issues with burn plugin and I was testing it via xineliboutput (remote connection to VDR). Other things went nicely but when there was a question for the operation (e.g. confirmation to remove failed burn operation from the list) it was not shown (vdr-sxfe). Question was shown in /var/log/messages and burn plugin was expecting an answer which is never got and VDR paniced and made an emergency exit.
Questions seems to be working from VDR itself like removal of recordings are shown nicely on remote client. So it seems to be a problem in burn plugin.
Setup (partly): VDR v1.4.7 xineliboutput v1.0.0rc2 burn (cvs 2007-12-15)
VDR has been patched with RoFa's patches for subtitles and ttxtsubs and of course with liemikuutio patch.
