I'm happy to sniff this one out over time ;-).  But first I need to
understand the kaa.xine a bit better.

Whats the chance of an overview of how kaa.xine works?  This would
help in two ways:
i) Sad coders like myself might have a chance at fixing things, one
area of interest is a re-write of the vdr-xine plugin (only temporary
until we've got live pause channel change on record start going).
ii) Keen coders might find it easier to do things like write other "players".
