	==Description==		==Description==
		+	The '''sky''' plugin is included with VDR and implements a new device, which is based on the MPEG2 encoder card described at linuxtv.org/mpeg2/kfir.xml. It allows you to connect the analog a/v output of your Sky Digibox to VDR, so that you can enjoy the full recording flexibility of VDR with your Sky subscription.
		+
		+	Note that this is NOT something that does anything illegal, like decrypting the Sky programme without a subscription. You will need a Sky Digibox and a valid subscription in order to use this plugin.

		+	==Installation==
		+	The 'kfir' module must be loaded with the option 'streamtype=4' to make it
		+	produce a Transport Stream.
		+	<pre>
		+	modprobe kfir streamtype=4
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	The Digibox is remotely controlled through VDR via LIRC (see lirc.org).
		+	The file ''lircd.conf.sky'' contains the remote control codes necessary to
		+	control the Digibox.
		+
		+	In order to access the Sky channels VDR needs to know the channel number
		+	under which each channel is stored in the Sky Digibox. These numbers are
		+	stored in the file ''channels.conf.sky'', together with the channel IDs as
		+	derived from the actual channel data and the names under which the EPG
		+	data for each channel can be found (see below). Copy this file to your
		+	plugins config directory, in a subdirectory named ''sky'', as in
		+
		+	<pre>
		+	mkdir /etc/vdr/sky
		+	cd $SOURCEDIR/VDR/PLUGINS/src/sky
		+	cp channels.conf.sky /etc/vdr/plugins/sky/
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	The Sky EPG is available on the Internet at http://www.bleb.org.
		+	The Perl script getskyepg.pl extracts the EPG data from these pages
		+	and sends it to VDR via an SVDRP connection. The channel names as
		+	used on the bleb.org pages are defined in the ''channels.conf.sky'' file.
		+	You can keep your EPG data up-to-date by entering a call to getskyepg.pl
		+	into your ''/etc/crontab''. Call ''getskyepg.pl -h'' for a list of options.
