[vdr] Re: AW: Re: realtime playback of recordings on different machines

Hi,

yes, that works. I had that kind of setup before a lightning bold 
grilled my DVB-s-cards (and the rest of my 
video/telefone/network-equipment) last year.

I had frame-drops while using a 10 MBit-network, 100 MBit solved that. 
But that was only while doing timeshift on the different maschines.

Bye, Benjamin
