Hi Klaus,
don't get me wrong, I appreciate your work. But I'm pretty angry
about the situation that VDR is (I don't care whether willingly or

We have now at least since about two or three years cheap and good
alternatives and there have been efforts to write DirectFB and
Xine-backends for VDR but they never found their way into the
mainstream source which means nothing else than that they are born

if they were not in main vdr (think of AIO, who is running vdr w/o it ?
I guess 50% using it). Further the "solution" you think of has some
problems.
I was mainly thinking of df-gp, the first VDR patch I know that worked
on the frambuffer (
