I've made patches for VDR 1.4.5 and few plugins (Subtitles, streamdev and xineliboutput, softdevice) to run them on Mac OS X (10.4.8 Intel tested) Notice, VDR can only be run as client for another VDR system as there's no support for DVB devices. Server-VDR needs a streamdev-server or xineliboutput plugin which can stream the reception to the client. Patches and short instrucions can be found from here: http://kotisivu.suomi.net/izero/vdr-darwin/vdr-darwin.html -- Tero
