Hi Klaus,
I just installed vdr-1.5.3, but lcdproc plugin caused vdr to crash on startup. I figured out that the problem is the translation of the string "Volume ". Unlike the other strings that are used by the plugin this string is provided by the vdr-core i18n.c This worked fine in vdr-1.5.1. Adding a dummy translation of "Volume " directly in the plugins i18n.c "fixed" the crash. Is this the intended behaviour? Or was this a feature by accident? ;-)
Regards, Joachim.
