I use the vdr-iptv plugin with ffmpeg. It isn't elegant but does send the channels from the firewire port into vdr.. PM me if you want the scripts..

To be honest with you, I have given up on firewire input with VDR, it was too flaky and started to use MythTV for HD input within the US, it supported my Comcast boxes via firewire out of the box, and also my HDPVR. I use VDR only for analog input with a PVR card now..

I used to, then again I swapped it to the MythTV setup, but subsequently cancelled cable, so don't use it much. I mainly use OTA and Clear Qam now, the HDPVR is connected to a Bluray player for Netflix over the network.
With VDR it's used with the vdr-pvrinput plugin..
