A network interface should be added between backend/frontend, so that a VDR client could connect into a VDR server, and use its data directly (caching implemented where desired), i.e. for EPG, recordings, timers, etc. Quite a bit of work would be needed for that separation. This is further complicated by the need of having to use DVB cards which are located in hosts running separate VDR instances, possibly requiring defining one VDR instance as a master backend server, which handles allocating the devices on different hosts, etc. > For a start, I would be happy to know if it is something feasible for > vdr 1.5.
