[vdr] Re: Feature request on streaming patch

[Peter Kreutzer <peter.kreutzer@freesurf.ch>]

I also think, that this is a good idea. I am using vdr now since 1 year and i 
have the same problem with my  low power machine (400 K6II).

As i know mplayer about to develop or already has a rtp streaming input.

The VIDEOONLAN project is only able to stream mpeg1 streams on the LAN and 
does not provide a built in transcode of divx to Mpeg / rtp.

I am not sure if thr transcode project will provide a rtp out in the future.

The only thing is that i am not able to program because of missing knowledge. 
:-(
