I've just been writing some docs describing the way I set up VDR / Xineliboutput on Ubuntu Dapper / Debian Unstable. The docs that you probably want to read are:
http://linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/DEBIAN_Compiling_VDR_Source_Packages http://linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/DEBIAN_Configuring_VDR
...it works for me, but I was writing some of it from memory, so I'd be interested to know if you can follow it.
Just had a quick look at your docs, looks great for me. I am definitely going to test it on the weekend (maybe on Monday). Until now, I compiled and installed everything by hand, bypassing Ubuntu's package system, which is inconvenient for me. I have VDR working with the xine-plugin, but I can't use mplayer to play media files with this, so I want to switch to xineliboutput.
When I'm finished with re-installation, I can definitely give you feedback on your docs, probably on Tuesday.
