Both the above players can play vdr files. I mount my recordings directory over NFS. You can jump forwards and backwards, so not being able to ffwd or rew isn't too much of a problem. However, if you try to seek with the arrow keys in xine it always jumps to the beginning. The progress bar still works properly though; you can drag it. Seeking with the arrow or PgUp/Dn keys in MPlayer works, but the amount it jumps each time is a bit hit & miss. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk
