Just replay/watch the stream vdr is currently recording and edit it on the 
fly. That's what I do when I watch "Friends".

If you wanna know which channel you're listen to, press the "OK" button. I 
don't like the idea to have a static picture a longer time at my expensive tv 
set.

Klaus is working on a plug-in system for vdr, which will be released very

RTFM! From the "MANUAL" File of a vanilla vdr-1.0.0:

"Pressing the '0' key in normal viewing mode toggles between the current and 
the previous channel."
