[vdr] Parallel recording on low-budget card

[Rene Bartsch <rene@bartschnet.de>]

Hi,

some time ago we had the discussion to do parallel recordings on one 
low-budget card when the channels are on the same transponder.

Klaus told us about two problems:

1.) only possible with low-budget cards, as the full-featured cards do 
not provide complete TS.

This could be done by determing card-type.

2.) complex restructuring of VDR would be necessary

Possible workaround:

"virtual" dvrs in VDR code. A function could be set between the origin 
dvr access-functions which looks for low-budget cards already tuned to 
the transponder and redirect the dvr-access to that card with supressing 
tuning commands.

Is that possible to do on VDR's code?
