hi,
I was wondering of moving the (low) noise VDR machine away from the living room. For that, I would need something new, and was considering Hauppauge MediaMVP. So a couple of questions:
- does MediaMVP and work with dvb-subtitles plugin? - which plugin to use: mediamvp plugin, or vompserver plugin? - do these plugins show VDR:s OSD (so that e.g. tvonscreen or osdteletext would work) ?
yours, Jouni

Maybe Xbox running mediacenter as frontend ? Streaming with xinelibout ?

Does it work? Mediacenter web pages seemed to talk only about streaming video files through a network filesystem. Perhaps I did miss that, though.
Running xineliboutput frontend (vdr-fbfe) on xbox definitely works, I've been using such a system for almost two years now. But you need to boot xbox to linux first... I use cromwell bios with etherboot and nfs root filesystem. Etherboot allows removing noisy xbox HDD too.

MVP ist not a "repeater" solution for vdr,s osd for that you should have a look at the xine-net solution with a passive epia system als frontent (flash or network boot) http://mitglied.lycos.de/peterweber69/xine/xine.htm http://mitglied.lycos.de/peterweber69/index-Dateien/image003.jpg
imho the best developed client solution working with a noiseless industriel produced client is the MTPCenter (Pinnacle Showcenter based) http://www.panczyk.org/linux/mtp_center_eng.html but this will not be a solution with VDR osd
