[vdr] Divx with 2 computers

[Tobias Hauth <tobias.hauth@gmx.de>]

hi,

what do you think about the following idea (dont know if it was mentioned 
bevor):

i think most people here use 1 ghz and below (or better 500mhz and below) 
computers for vdr. because this is not enough for mplayer and divx i used my 
normal computer with 1,4 ghz. but this is not so good for a living room 
solution. i think it would be nice, if i can encode divx to mpg with my 1,4 
ghz computer ( using windows or using linux, just where i am at the moment 
(mplayer works unter win32? or not (divx to mpg)?)) and write it over the 
network on my vdr computer. the vdr computer should have a dummy file for 
each divx film i have and when selecting this dummy file with vdr (in the 
normal recordings menu) a script or so should start divxdecoding over the 
network.


anybody think this coukd work? or has somebody currently have a similiar 
config? would be very nice. i think this would be much to use (even with only 
one computer because you dont have to use extra menus for divx, you dont even 
recognise it because all looks like normal vdrrecordings)


just an idea
