Not that good. It's a dirty setup and I'm having two problems. As HTTP 
is a packet-oriented protocol, you cannot navigate in the file, which 
does not allow fastforwarding/rewinding. Additionally the pathnames of 
the VDR-recordings are often misinterpreted by the browser because of 
special characters like "#3F" (even with VFAT=1), which leads to wrong URLs.

For getting pathnames from VDR.

For creating shoutcast-playlists in the recording directories (because 
of the multiple recording files).

- Webserver (see INSTALL-file)
As MODR provides the absolute path from "/" your webserver has to use 
"/" for chroot (be careful to deny access to all except video-directory 
when using "/" for chroot.
