I guess it's because the MPlayer plugin uses playmode pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED (this means vdr has closed fd_video & fd_audio while the player is running). If you read the comments in device.h, I wouldn't blame Klaus for anything arising from this playmode. Regards. -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt@xxxxxx | http://www.muempf.de/
