Did someone tried on Jaunty?
Vdr with the xine-libout plugin stops immediatly, without errors.
Xbmc doesn't play anything.
I use jaunty with nvidia 185.18.04 driver and vdpau enabled on xinelibout and on xbmc.

Can any of you guys who have this working tell me how stable / well this is working for you ?
I'm seriously considering installing Ubuntu 9.04 on my TV-Server (currently windows!) and giving this a try, but with a girlfriend fed up of the TV not working I have a few questions first :p
1) Is a full EPG working with the ability to schedule / play back recordings?
2) Can I use the Windows build of XBMC to watch LiveTV, EPG etc.. when connected to the VDR via a network - or it is only Linux 'clients'?
3) Are HD Channels and Channel Combining supported ? (I have a Hauppage HD-S2 and Hauppage DVB-T some channels appear on both cards so it's nice to combine them like under MediaPortal)
Any advice would be great!

Hi,
Thanks very much for your reply.. shame about not being able to use a Windows client to watch the streams as that will mean a bunch of extra work changing all my boxes to linux - still it'll be worth it so we don't have to keep switching between XBMC and Mediaportal to watch TV!
Would you mind taking a couple of screenshots of things like EPG, Setting a program to Record, Previous recordings etc..
I'd like to see how girlfriend friendly this is before starting out, and the screenshot links in the first post don't seem to be working.
Thanks again!
