I started with those two connection types for the following reasons: - They are available with every VDR installation, - they promised to provide the most complete and up-to-date access because they are included with VDR and the plugins, respectively, and - they are supported by the plugins I was most interested in (mostly EPGSearch). Fortenately, I havn't experienced any conflicts when using SVDRP connections in the library. I understand that there can be only one active SVDRP connection at any time, potentially causing timeouts. But that restriction could be an advantage, too, because it might protect against at least some inconsistencies caused by two or more clients accessing VDR's data at the same time. The library is designed to be extensible with other connection types, like those you mention. But unless my scripts run into problems (and they havn't so far), I'd rather add some unit tests to what I already have first and extend the set of connection types after that (actually, the stubs for restful and dbus have already been there for a while :-).
