Well, I thought about this when implementing the new keys,
but then I thought that the most logical key to select a recording
from a menu would be the "Ok" button ;-) But I can of course make
the "Play" button select a recording to be played in the menu, too.
However, this would make the Play button depend on the current menu
mode - I'm not sure if there wouldn't be a loud uproar from others,
who always requested "modeless" keys...

Will do.

That's not the way plugins are meant to be used. It is meant
to work in a way that you select your plugins when you start VDR, and
then these are "there" all the time. If you want to restart VDR with
a different set of plugins, I suggest you set up some entries in your
'commands.conf' which modify your VDR start script (or a file read
by that script).
