That solution is work in Progress. The coder of the DVD-Addon is working on
it. ("fighting with Problems").
I also hope that that solution will come and I already tried a pre-alpha
that worked but the menu needs a quicker computer because its
realtime-encoded as mpg. on my K6-2 400 it isnt that quick like the DVB-S
and that is not very fine. Maybe Andreas could speed it up when all works ok
but there are many stones in the way.
