The problem is that although I can hear the channel playing and I can see and use the vdr menus using softdevice I can't view the actual program wether or not it's live or recorded.
Ae you using Xv output? It's prob the wrong colour key used for the overlay. Search the softdevice devel for a fix.

I forgot to mention that I'm using DirectFB only.
And you forgot to mention which hardware you are using. With DirectFB we need hardware YUV -> RGB conversion support.
Plain fb output mode should run on any hw, but requires some more CPU power.

I'm using nvidiafb with a GF 6600.
6600 ... I think that was the series, where they (nvidia) dropped the overlay unit. When I remind this correct, from this series on only the blitter can be used. So it _could_ be, that when selecting YUY2 as output pixel format _and_ setting "Use StretchBlit" to yes, video is shown. But this depends on DirectFB's driver capabilities too.
However normal framebuffer is also showing menus but no video. Also shouldn't colourspace errors mean I get no menus either?
Menus are drawn directly to framebuffer in RGB.
