[vdr] How to determine that VDR is ready to go ?

2006-11-09 Thread vdr
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
