Well, but as -r from the example above is a plugin dependant parameter, I just 
looked into /usr/share/doc/vdr-plugin-xine/* and MANUAL.gz was not specific 
enought IMO in case, neither is it in some other cases. Anway, it was just a 
suggestion...

It tries to access /home/me/.gxine/socket, but the .gxine directory doesn't 
even exist. Other calls which fail (each error case only listed once):

 access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK)      = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
 directory)
 ...
 open("/etc/ld.so.preload", O_RDONLY)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
 directory)
 ...
 open("/usr/lib/charset.alias", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such 
 file or directory)
 ...
 connect(6, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/.nscd_socket"}, 110) = -1 
 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
 ...
 unlink("/tmp/gxine_6082")               = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
 directory)
