5. VDR as recording slave, no Live Viewing at all, Viewing of recordings via "Streaming Client"
I use a "Pinnacle ShowCenter 200" to view my recordings, after cutting them into single-file .mpg-files. I haven't view anything live for quite some time and so i haven't spend time to create a setup with live-viewing capability.
In this setup the VDR-Machine can be anywhere you want. The VDR-machine can also act as the Server for the Clients.
For Servering the Client(s) you can use for e.g. "Linux MTPCenter"(*)
The "Missing link" (VDR-Recoding -> <cutting> -> Serving) is the cutting-process with which you can create your marks(*2) and which spits out something the Server-Part can use. I've always used my own cutting solution so i don't have a "Missing link". But i don't know what kind of help the MTPC is for this as i have only used it for a few hours myself. So cutting MAYBE a Showstopper problem in this setup.
And for the last part: Everywhere you want to watch recordings you "only" need Ethernet (alternative the device i use also has WLAN capability!) and a "Streaming Client". I bought mine for about 260 EUR which is rather cheap compared to a computer and you only need Power/Network at the TV.

*2: Unless you have access to the VDR-machine or you use part of the other solutions for accessing the VDR-machine from remote you can't use the VDR-machine for this.
