Hello
I'm trying to setup vdr with a budget card (only, no ff card) and softdevice.
When I launch vdr and softdevice from a terminal, everything is working fine (with xv)
But I'd like to set up vdr as a daemon (i.e. launched by init.d) so recording can begin even if I'm not logged.
So far, I've managed to run vdr (from debian package) and softdevice after some crude hacks: - I've added and 'export DISPLAY=:0.0' in /etc/init.d/vdr - I must be logged in and perform a xhost local:
I'd like to be able to run vdr as a daemon with softdevice plugin loaded. For this I need softdevice to not try to connect to X11 until a command is sent to vdr daemon (either through the remote control or SVDRP).
This command would need to contain the display name to connect to.
Does this sound reasonnable ? (or did I miss something ?)
Thanks
