On the other hand, we are almost there... We can watch live-tv, record, playback and also time-shifting works. But there are still things to be done, it is not as stable as it should be, and the build process is difficult and almost completely undocumented (especially for the mminput-plugin) > >> 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?

If you end the vdr, the block won't be deleted, so you may try to delete the shared memory block and let vdr create a new one. Did you make sure that you have a clean build (make clean doesn't delete all the files...)? Bye, Martin
