EPG support falls into the category of the most basic functionality. I'm not convinced things like this belong as optional plugins to be honest. Some things, such as VDR's attachment to FF cards, make sense as plugins. But it seems the automatic answer to everything is 'make it a plugin' now. So is VDR to become merely a plugin manager with no actual core functionality anymore? Is it wise to have VDR rely on plugins to be usable at all? These types of questions deserve consideration when you want to walk on slippery slopes. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
