Have you tried rpihddevice plugin with VDR on the rpi? It might work even smoother than using xinelinboutput, but you'd have to find a different setup for cec i suppose.

Maybe when I get tired maintaining current xine-lib based solution :)
Based on quick look at README it should have more solid HW support than vdr-fbfe. The only thing I'd like to improve in vdr-fbfe is dynamically changing video mode (interlacing, refresh rate, clock tweaking for live mode). CEC shouldn't be a problem, it should be quite easy to add libcec support with a separate VDR plugin.
I think it requires some solution to delegate timers to server ?
With vdr-fbfe I haven't noticed any delay caused by network or OSD rendering (OSD is rendered at "powerful" server and the box is in wired ethernet). But, I don't use ARGB osd or complex animated skins.
