Hi Arpi, Klaus is using the Kfir board and has implemented a plugin for using it as valid recording device from inside vdr. AFAIk he is using it to record from a sky-box. The only other vendor that maybe in some time will support linux (not sure yet) is vidac with their vidac vmagic.( I have mailed them a couple of weeks ago and they said they are talking about it currently). For the Kfir board Klaus can sure say more about it. -- Regards Steffen ____________________ counter.li.org : #296567. machine: 181800 vdr-box : 87 ____________________ Please dont CC me, since if I have replied I'll watch the tread.
