[vdr] Re: VDR developer version 1.1.14

[Matthias Raus <matthias-raus_vdr@web.de>]

Hi Klaus,

vdr-1.1.14 works fine here, the new key learning mode went well after I 
had understood it fully... (however, VDR crashed directly after the 
learning mode was finished)
I have got two questions btw. wishes:
1. On my remote, there is an INFO button, which could be used to 
directly view information about the current broadcasting. I think this 
very practical and would replace pressings the buttons MENU, 1, OK with 
only one button press. Could you please add this main menu function 
"Info" to the existing functions "Schedule", "Channels" etc.?
2. In the new file "keymacros.conf", can I assign macros that e.g. call 
the mp3-plugin menu or can it only be used to control vdr itself?

Thanks a lot for your excellent work,

Matthias
