There exits XXV, it store many vdr data at mysql-tables. It could use as http, telnet or soap server.

That way the class writing the files could be easily inherited with the writing functions overwritten by functions with MySQL queries. A compiler switch would then select between the two classes at compile time. Unfortunately I don't have enough C++ skills to do it myself.

But IMHO this sounds like a feature of VDR 2.0 ;-) It does have the added overheads of running MySQL on what might be a low-power system, slower startup, etc. Then again, reading large amounts of EPG data, etc. from what can be huge flat files should improve things!

Maybe there could be a compiler switch or even a command-line option for VDR to switch between file and SQL mode. Could be very usefull if VDR ever evolves to real client/server system. For simple STB, I'm not so sure. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
