Here I don't have analog tv nor analog tvout, but I have 2 dvb-s cards. For me the perfect solution would be a mix of xine+net and streamdev. Ideally vdr-xine (+ network) would allow several clients to connect independently. It would use multicast to send the video and use tcp to get command from the client. I could run 2 vdr processes and have a vdr-xine+network per vdr. but it's not handy on the client side. (sure, there're always solutions...) (either 1 dvb card per vdr, or the 2 cards for the 1st vdr and the 2nd vdr connected to the first with streamdev vtp) There might be constraints in vdr or/and vdr-xine not allowing this more easily, i'm don't really know. I guess vdr 1.5 could be even more modular ! :) --
