The plugins initialize the player with > cPlayer(pmAudioOnly). This has been discussed some time ago. As a recording has to (at least potentionaly) switch the channel and the live video occupies the device, the player has to be aborted. If you would use "black" mode in MP3-plugin, the player won't be aborted (device not occupied). When you're recording on primary device and watching live TV, VDR uses transfer mode. Transfer mode counts as a player and there can only be one player at a time. So if you starts MP3-plugin in this situation, transfer mode is aborted and you ends up with no video. It's not a bug, it's a feature. Regards. -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt@xxxxxx | http://www.muempf.de/
