Please check the symlink /var/cache/vdr/dvd points to with:

  ls -l /var/cache/vdr/dvd ; test -e /var/cache/vdr/dvd || echo "broken"

If the symlink is broken, fix it by making it point to your dvd device,
e.g. like:

  ln -sf /dev/cdrom /var/cache/vdr/dvd

Alternatively, you can configure the dvd device in
/etc/vdr/plugins/plugin.dvd.conf.

The dvd plugin probably shouldn't kill VDR if it can't access the DVD device.
