it does work here with .19. but i'm not happy with it.
i causes high cpu loads and causes (reproducable) restarts of vdr when 
entering eg. cam menu.

as well it causes problems together with .19 patched with noepg, enaio 
and jumppatch. starting an in that way patched vdr makes it impossible 
to RECORD anything. vdr respondes no more and hits the watchdog and 
restart. after that the programmed timer (if used with PAUSE) is gone.

just search vdr-portal.de and you will find an already patched plugin.
