For instance: - zapping is very slow on encrypted and non-encrypted channels; - No bouquets are shown; - 4:3 broadcasts doesn't get automaticly set to 16:9 output; - Plugin needs to configured/started within video environment of XBMC (no own menu); Just not really workable atm, at least for me that is. But there's talk about implenting VDR frontend within XBMC. But that's just it, it's just talk. For a high WAF implementation, the VDR/XBMC switch wins hands down.
