Has anyone written a direct UPnP/DLNA plugin, to stream out VDR recordings and live TV to PS3 or XBOX 360?
no something like that doesnt exist. I have used a cron to fetch the m3u of the channels list onto harddisc and mediatomb to serve it with upnp to my tg100. To my knowledge they are supporting PS3 and the latest version is also supporting transcoding - so this seems to be a good start. Missing is a recording list which can be done with some sort of hack with the streamdev plugin as well (greating a file with the urls for recordings and streamdev externremox to serve the files.
I tried loading streamdev urls like http://vdr:3000/TS/3 with PS3 browser.. It does understand that it's some sort of stream, but I think it mistakes it as mp3 audio for some reason. Perhaps it would help if the url would end with .mpg or something.
So a playlist doesn't help here, because ps3 can't open the stream itself..
IMHO this would be a logical extension to the streamdev plugin. :)
see above - yes. This and the possibility to have some notification between mediatomb and streamdev-server this would be really nice.
I'm not switching to mediatomb now that I have spend days to get Fuppes working. :) Anyway, with Fuppes I can play any video file with PS3.
Anyway, if I use "wget http://127.0.0.1:3000/TS/3" to get a few MB of data and save that as "test.mpg", ps3 will show it just fine. So the format itself is just fine, I just can't get it streaming..
I'll probably try to get direct http stream support in fuppes, that should do the trick. :)

I don't have a PS3 - but could you try using URLs with 'PES' or 'PS' in the URL rather than TS? It might like those more :)
Especially if it wants '.mpg' extensions, then PS should be exactly what it wants to hear..
Certainly UPnP would be a wonderful goal for streamdev's next development cycle.
Cheers, Gavin.

I have tried PES, PS, TS, no difference there. :)
PS3 can play PS and TS files nicely, so both streams should work as well..
What format exactly are .vdr files, are they PES? PS3 doesn't play them directly, but transcoding to PS or TS works.
