For VDR 1.4.4 You need a patch to make it compile without errors. This one can be found here: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2006-December/011336.html Simply save the: vdr-videosystem-0.0.1-uint64-0001.bin. Let us know how if it worked and how well. It seems this plugin assumes I am

This makes absolutely no sense to me. Why don't you simply grab a plain VDR 1.4.6 without any patches and try the plugin out? It only takes 3-4 minutes to set it up and you'll see whether or not it will work correctly. Using the plugin was only a suggestion for the time being. I thought you

I think I'll stick to what I said earlier in that support for NTSC should really be a core feature of VDR. I have no interest in running a plugin like this and would rather just stick to patching VDR if Klaus doesn't intend to address this issue. :\
