That's what I have done. I've written a little script which is called from the XBMC scripts section. It basicly starts vdr-sxfe and kills xbmc. After exiting vdr-sxfe xbmc is started again. VDR is running in the background connected with my server in the basement through streamdev. This solution works very good for me.
In the video, it looks like the the user is using a main menu entry, that why I wondered, because the XBMC VDR plugin does not seem to support OSD transmission.

I see no reason to use xbmc as vdr frontend. Personally I use lirc/irexec to switch between vdr-sxfe and xbmc. The "DVD Player" button switches to xbmc, and "Live TV" or "Recorded TV" for vdr-sxfe. As for startup times, my clients use 28-30W and have no fans or hdd's so I have them on 24/7. At least during Swedish winter a have use for them anyway... /Magnus H
