The pause is global to all connected clients to this vdr-remote. Yes, you can connect several clients to one xineliboutput-vdr-host but they will all have the same channel and OSD appearances displayed - IOW, they are not independent.
I see, so it would not be a solution if you wanted to have independent clients connected to the same VDR (watching different recordings, for example).
No. For true multi-user you need to run multiple instances of VDR. But you can still run those in the same server.
Yes. IMHO, it is better to use RPI only as client with no harddisk.
It seems that vdr-fbfe could allow an inexpensive and small solution where a generic headless ARM-based NAS box acts as the server, and the RPi (attached on the back side of the TV) acts as the client. I guess that the server could simultaneously serve other clients via other plugins (such as the SmartTVweb plugin).
