Please wait until next week. I'll then have the brand new VDR 2.0.0
packages available which should make debugging such crashes easier.
Ok. A new VDR version is now availabl here:
deb http://e-tobi.net/vdr-experimental wheezy base addons vdr-multipatch
The packages there are much newer than what is currently available in
Debian, so they might already fix your problem.
If there are still crashes, you can enable the creation of core dumps by
setting "ENABLE_CORE_DUMPS=1" in /etc/default/vdr and restarting vdr.
Normally the coredump will then be created as /tmp/core.
To analyze the core dump, you need to install the dbg-packages too, which
currently are:
vdr-dbg
vdr-plugin-xineliboutput-dbg
and depending how you use xineliboutput also:
xineliboutput-sxfe-dbg
or
libxineliboutput-sxfe-dbg
(or the *fbfe* version if you use the frame buffer instead of X).
To get some useful information from the core dump you can do:
gdb /usr/bin/vdr --core=/tmp/core --batch -ex "where"
gdb /usr/bin/vdr --core=/tmp/core --batch -ex "bt"
gdb /usr/bin/vdr --core=/tmp/core --batch -ex "thread apply all bt"
