Objection!

MPlayer-playback get's heavy artefarcts (errors in decoding slice) when
two machine access the same channel (this can't be a network-problems as
the VDR-server and one client is connected to the switch by 1000Base-T
and the second client by 100Base-T).

As it seems duplicating the packets or opening a new receiver thread
(how did you implement it?) doesn't work properly, while recording and
watching by http works fine.
