Pasi,I think on Tuesday I will have some time to capture the network traffic. I have a gut feeling they use a modified vnc protocol for the GUI display, but we will see...
Ok, nice :)

Hi,I've got a first version of an extension to streamdev for SageTV
ready.
You can check it out here:
http://trac.assembla.com/SageTV-VDR-Integration .
I watched some HDTV on the extender with it yesterday and the picture was
so
fluid, I am still grinning.
Cool!
When you stop grinning and have some time please upload those network/packet dumps between SageTV server and HD Extender.. :)

recorder plugin protocol.
Nice!
If anyone wants to write a VDR plugin to support the device directly,
I
can
provide network dumps of the communication between the extender and
the
server.
Ok. Can you put some dumps online? Or if you don't have web/ftp space
for
that, I think I can fix something..
I could take a look at those dumps..

Yep.. someone with access to hd_extender should do some packet
capturing
and/or tracing to figure out how the communication between sagetv
server
and hd_extender is done..
I'm not interested in using SageTV software, but I'd like to use
this
device with VDR.. if possible. And possibly help developing a vdr plugin :)
