From what I've read on
http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/Xineliboutput-plugin, xineliboutput can output video directly via framebuffer, does this mean that X.org is of no use? I've tried starting 'vdr-sxfe --video=fb ...' (or DirectFB) but it keeps telling it can't connect to X server. What would you suggest when running xineliboutput on a vdr box with the only output via hdmi?
TIA.
