I've heard people say xinelibout is > "better" because it is more stable. But, whats the reality? If you've used both you should be able to compare them, shouldn't you ? I've also used both. Now i'm only using xineliboutput because (just facts, no attack !) - it has support for network without patching for longer - it doesn't require me to recompile libxine - network features are more advanced - i can have more that one frontend watching/sharing the same channel. - now i just aptitude install libxine1-xvdr to install the client side. Obviously the two plugins are both great plugins. And, Reinhard you do a really good job providing patches for vdr & xine ! Thanks a lot. I guess the hidden question was "have you ever considered to merge the two projects ?", wasn't it ? :) My question would be: "one vdr, one xineliboutput plugin, 2 dvb cards, 2 independant frontends displaying different channels(+osd and stuff) without streamdev, has it been considered ?" :) -- _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
