Re: [vdr] Hulu for Linux

I've tried to start looking through the posted threads, but they are 40-60 pages long :( google tends to take me back to the same pages.

       I already have debain linux/vdr setup. 64 bit on my system and 32

       another flavor of linux.


    Then XBMC will help you ;) Here is one way to integrate VDR and
    XBMC using streamdev plugin -
    http://blog.mymediasystem.net/avchd/xbmc-on-karmic-with-vdpau-and-vdr/
    There is also another way without streamdev, which is better as
    people talk.

And then, how does it related to the OP question ?

           Hi Timothy,

           You may try LinuxMCE - http://linuxmce.com, which includes
           VDR, MythTV and now Hulu :) Or you can try XBMC+VDR

              Hulu now has a linux interface. And it seems MythTv
    can use
           it. what
              about vdr? Can it be done without installing a desktop?

To my understanding, yes and no, depends on what you understand to
be a desktop. You need X for it and something to launch it. (Flash
interface) + Flashplayer (i believe Gnash can't do it yet ?)

The XBMC could be your "Desktop" and i believe, what the answers
before trying you to say is you could launch Hulu Desktop from
within XBMC (not proven as i can't - neither XBMC here yet, nor can
i use hulu) So whatever else, you need X and display X on your TV.
