Hi, I got interested in from your plugins and tried to read throught your web page to get more info. So if I understood correctly the svdrpservice plugin provides the highway howto communicate from client to vdr server.

But after that I get a little lost what are the cases where I should use your plugins... I mean currently I have 1 vdr server with dvb-t and dvb-c cards, xineliboutput server and streamdev server plugins running on it. Then from other client computers I can use either mplayer or xineliboutput client (vdr-sxfe)
for connecting to this server for watching the tv. Currently my setup has however a that kind of limitation that all vdr-sxfe clients are forced to watch the same channel and whenever any of the clients change channel, the channel will be changed also to every other vdr-sxfe clients. I have read this could be somehow be avoided by running multiple vdr servers on the server machine and then forcing each client to connect to own vdr server port...

In the xineliboutput documents directory there is a README file that explains how to setup xineliboutput where each client can watch different channels. You are currently remote viewing the "master vdr" already so no need to use the plugins. If you run vdr on each client then these plugins are of greate use, which you are not, you are only running vdr-sxfe on it's own.

Are your plugins meant for solving a that kind of multiple clients want to watch different channel problems or for which purpose your are using these plugins?
