Hi, I'd like to know when vdr is ready with its initializatin routines ( starting plugins etc ). This is necessary to optimize the system boot up time, because starting other services should wait until vdr is ready. Till now I do a "sleep 15", but thats not really nice ;) A possible workaround is to count the vdr pids and when this number does not grow for about 3 seconds I decide that startup is done. Also I can search the syslog for special messages, but thats all not very handy. Any other ideas are welcome :) Bye Helmut

Hi Helmut, you can wait for VDR responding to svdrp-connections.

PS: Some plugins seem to do too much in its initialization routine. e.g. audiorecorder tries to load all filenames at start which takes for me around 30s.

No I can't - net.local is not started yet ;)

Luckily I only have about 300 recordings from audiorecorder and it takes no time during startup ...
