Note that it only works with the softdevice as output device. Softplay is in an early stage of development, but it has already strong playlist support, plays almost any file that is supported by ffmpeg (.avi, .mpg, .mp3, .wav,...) and has the keymappings like one is used to from the vdr. There is not yet an official release of the plugin, but there will be a first release soon. If you want to have a look at it you can get the plugin via cvs from cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/softdevice login cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/softdevice co softplay Bye, Martin
