I'm not saying anything about the epg data as plain text vs sqlite thing, but would like to note that things are not always that black and white as the above seems to say. In my opinion it does not make sense to reimplement everything that's required just in order to avoid dependencies (but other valid reasons for not using something that's already there might of course exist). _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
