Bug#661319: vdr-plugin-xineliboutput: plugin fails to play DVDs with missing /dev/dvd

Package: vdr-plugin-xineliboutput
Version: 1.0.7+cvs20120214.0259-2
Severity: minor

Hi,

since recently, I couldn't look DVDs anymore using the plugin and the only
error messages I could find were:


Feb 26 10:42:57 hdvdr vdr: [19962] [xine..put] cXinelibOsd::CanHandleAreas(): Device does not support ARGB
Feb 26 10:42:57 hdvdr vdr: [20096] Metadata scanner thread started (pid962, tid 096)
Feb 26 10:42:57 hdvdr vdr: [20096] [xine..put] ID3Scanner Started
Feb 26 10:42:57 hdvdr vdr: [20096] [xine..put] ID3Scanner Done.
Feb 26 10:42:57 hdvdr vdr: [20096] Metadata scanner thread ended (pid962, tid 096)
Feb 26 10:42:57 hdvdr vdr: [19962] [xine..put] cXinelibPlayer playing dvd:/ (FAIL)
Feb 26 10:42:58 hdvdr vdr: [19962] [xine..put] cXinelibDvdPlayerControl: EndOfStreamReached
Feb 26 10:43:01 hdvdr vdr: [19962] switching to channel 301


Using xine directly "xine dvd:/" I then got the error message:
libdvdread: Can't stat /dev/dvd
And indeed I don't have /dev/dvd anymore but only /dev/dvd1 (don't know why
but that's another story).

It would be nice if the plugin could be as sensible as to output the same kind
of helpful error message! It would be even more perfect if it would come to the
GUI.

Thanks, Eric
