There are such plans. Just a matter of spare time ;-)
Sounds great. What about also adding an option to switch OSD to skincurses (to console), without modifying the primary device.

That's not a matter of vdr-xine but VDR. Currently, VDR supports only a setup like this:
VDR Slave 1 --- xine 1 / VDR Master \ VDR Slave 2 --- xine 2
VDR Master runs vdr-streamdev-server and VDR Slaves run vdr-streamdev-client + vdr-xine. All VDR instances run on the same computer and share the same recording directory. VDR Master provides access to all DVB devices and VDR Slaves take care of OSD and transfer mode for vdr-xine.
Remaing issues: - VDR Slaves should ask VDR Master to do recordings. - VDR Master should inform VDR Slaves of new recordings (touch .update).
Bye.

The setup with several VDR is not optimal at all. What would be the changes to make one VDR handle this configuration ? Does the object models in VDR allow that without BIG changes ?
