I think the point is the OP wants it to be built in to VDR instead of a plugin. Personally I don't have a problem with having to use a plugin for display, provided it's well supported and closely tracks core VDR development. But I use the Debian packages (based on VDR 1.6 and xine 1.1) so I don't know how much hassle this causes when trying to use the bleeding edge. It would be nice to have BBC HD and ITV HD if I could be bothered to put in the effort. There are some unofficial VDR 1.7 debian packages, but there seem to be about 3 sets, so what to choose? Something more official in Debian's "experimental" section would be nice. I would get far more involved with VDR, particularly the Debian side of things, but I decided some time ago it would never be quite the program I want (nor are mythtv, freevo or gnome-dvb-daemon) and I'd rather write my own rival, so I wouldn't be able to commit long term to maintaining VDR plugins and packages. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
