I had such problems years ago. The hardware is quite sensitive to the way 
it gets initialized. I was able to eliminate the problem by tweaking the 
init squence to what it is today.

One thing you should try is pull the power cord out for a few minutes. 
When I was playing around with the init sequence sometimes the hardware 
would get stuck in a bad state and nothing else would really help.

If that doesn't help I'm afraid your only option is changing the init 
sequence somehow so it works.

No idea since I don't use vdr or df_xine.
