Does anyone happen to know any RTFM resources or STFW pointers for this setup? The best one I've so far googled up is: http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Kanotix_-_Streaming-Server_mit_Xine-Plugin_f?r_Client_mit_Xine-Player http://mitglied.lycos.de/peterweber69/xine/xine.htm but it is all in German and I do understand much of it but not all. The actual installation seems to so far be a hodge-podge of different patches to all kinds of applications and hardcoded versions of software and a lot of work to get up and running, so is it worth trying this approach? We don't really need that much interactivity at all, ie VDR menus etc are not really needed. I basically only want to play back recordings or the thin client. -- Jan Ekholm jan.ekholm@xxxxxxxxxxxx
