I started this just to test what is required to get VDR even compiled. Because it wasn't so much, I continued also with few plugins to get also video out and used Xineliboutput for it. If there's any use of my patches please use them. I can provide at least test support for Mac-VDR. > We planned to publish our work some time ago, but up to now we delayed > it again and again... > Maybe we can join our efforts?

I have larger shm values in /etc/rc than in the ReadMe, any ideas what could be the problem: Vdr start output: [softdevice] initializing Plugin [softdevice] Initializing Video Out [softdevice] ffmpeg build(3349248) cShmVideoOut: Got ctl_shmid 65536 shm ctl!
