My idea would be : 
-  IR + LCD on one usb-line
- dvd on another line
- maybe a hup as repeater between them and the vdr-computer

But I didn't found something like the first point. So maybe a small machine as 
remote-dvd , IR and LCD Server and the server over long a/v . 

It seems I'm not at the end of my planning ;) 

Currently my vdr is working on my normal and the TV next to my PC. The living 
room is direct under my working room. I have 3 possible machines 

- 200 Mhz k6-200 (noisy PSU)
- 500 Mhz Athlon (noisy PSU, ati rage 128 with tv-out)
- 1100 Mhz Duron (by far the quietest, but I don't want to miss it as working 
station)

Maybe a discussion-list "htpc-networking" would be interesting ;)
