Note that 0.8.0 has network support built-in.I know but you still have to patch and recompile xine-lib... Are there any problems in submitting the needed patch to the mainstream xine-lib distribution?
The problem is that small parts of the patch would break binary compatibility in xine-lib-1.1.x. This is no problem if a distribution decides to include the patch and recompiles all applications which use xine-lib-1.1.x.
I still do provide those patches as not all people are willing to switch to xine-lib-1.2 (hg) which is still in development, contains the patches and therefore works out of the box.
A nice feature that vdr-xine has over xineliboutput, is that it automatically sets itself as the primary device when a connection comes, and when the connection is closed it restores the previous primary device. This way I can either watch locally with the dxr3-plugin or remotely with vdr-xine.I only have Skystar2/Airstai2 budget cards, so it's not an issue for me. A feature that allows to watch different channels on clients at the same time (without using multiple vdr installations and streamdev) would definetely make me switch back to vdr-xine :)
And you wouldn't mind applying a huge patch on VDR to achieve this goal?
Bye.
