[vdr] Re: vdr and via epia...

[Sebastian Kemper <sebastian.kemper@web.de>]

I bought a M6000 for my parents. It's in a Casper-A206-case together 
with a Samsung 160GB 5400rpm hdd and a LiteOn 16x DVD-drive. The 
powersupply is an external 110W one with only one small circuit board in 
the case. I've not one single fan in this thing and so for so good ... 
not yet burned down the house.

I tried divx with a selfencoded recording of a concert but it sucked, 
even in low res. I must admit that it was a nandub sbc encode, so it's 
rather cpu-consuming to decode. But if it can't play divx' like this I'm 
not using it for divx anyway.

But this is only one small glitch. Everything else works like a charm, 
like teletext, svcd and dvd. I'm going to get the image plugin running 
and that's it.

I've Slackware 9.1 running in this box and the amazing thing is it 
starts within 27 secs from pushing the button till vdr startup.

The M6k is a very nice board.

Good look

Sebastian
