Hmm. I have the same (yaVDR) running on an ION330 box. The channels I most have problems with are 1080i HD at bitrates of around 9-10 MB/s. Perhaps you could post your ~/.xine/config_xineliboutput to http://gist.github.com or http://paste.ubuntu.com ? > For me, XBMC with the xvdr plugin seems to produce very ackward results and most > of the time I'm not able to watch anything because it's still > synchronizing the channels Yes, I don't use the xvdr plugin as it is still very buggy. I simply take the playlist of channels from streamdev (available at http://example.com:3000/ on your vdr box) and generate .strm files [1] which I access from a vanilla XBMC Eden via the Videos --> Files browser. > BTW, you do know that can play all kinds of media (including DVD's) > with vdr-sxfe right? > I use vdr-sxfe because it's one of the few frontends which allows > mediaplayback without any additional plugins. Yep I did know about these, but XBMC provides a much richer experience for DVD, Blu-ray playback. e.g., cataloguing and display of a library, automatic display framerate switching etc. --- [1] http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Play_internet_video_and_audio_streams#The_.STRM_file_method: _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
