Hi,
In Brief
Have you checked file permissions?
Detail
The first example you quote that works is the way iptvstream.sh should be called I think (so that parameters can be passed to the script).
The first thing I'd check are the file permissions on iptvstream.sh (i.e. the output from
ls -l /etc/vdr/iptvstream.sh
) and that they allow the user running vdr to execute the script.
In general I hesitate in modifying the source until I have ruled out other possibilities as I imagine an error of this nature in the source would have been picked up by others sooner (unless it is a very recent change).
In closing
First step check file permissions on the shell script.
Regards,
Ian.

Subject: [vdr] vdr-iptv "sh -c" iptvstream.sh issue
Hi,
the external script iptvstream.sh not execute from iptv plugins ?
I get: "ERROR: Script execution failed: /etc/vdr/iptvstream.sh 1 4321"
after looking at the source code "protocolext.c"
------
// Create a new session for a process group
ERROR_IF_RET(setsid() == -1, "setsid()", _exit(-1));
if (execl(EXTSHELL, "sh", "-c", *cmd, (char *)NULL) == -1) {
error("Script execution failed: %s", *cmd);
_exit(-1);
...
I tried to execute it in the same way:
sh -c /etc/vdr/iptvstream.sh 1 4321
not work. (the shell exit with no execution)
I try with the cote (like):
sh -c "/etc/vdr/iptvstream.sh 1 4321"
or,
sh /etc/vdr/iptvstream.sh 1 4321
and, work fine.
Should add cote or remove "-c" in source code to fix this ?
Or any other solution ?
Using: vdr-iptv-2.0.0 and VDR 2.0.2
Thanks.
