The problem is, that there is currently no way to hook into VDR's menus, so 
there is no way to let the plugin know, that the user created a timer on 
the client, so it can transfer it to the server.

@Klaus: I don't know if you are aware of that, VDR itself can be a client to 
streamdev, so all UI stuff is locally on the client, but the video data is 
streamed.

The only solutions I could think of would be a) patching VDR in a way Uwe 
suggested or b) copy VDR's timer- and recording-stuff into an own submenu 
within the PlugIn (for the client side), which is both not what I really 
want. But if there is no solution to this until 1.3, I'll think of that.

The main reason why I'm currently skipping those features is that I want to 
wait for 1.3 and see what has been done in that area until then :-). Well 
the second reason is lack of time (as for most of us I guess).

Greetings,
Sascha
