Looking at the initial description we should use
patch -p1 < ../VDR-Extensions-Patch-68/vdr-1.7.4_extensions.diff
patch -p1 < ../vdr-1.7.4-ext68-streamdev.patch
My vdr (1.6.0) is working well and streamdev using mplayer works etc so assumed patching was not necessary.
If patching is necessary is there a single patch for vdr instead of using this combined extensions-patch?
Really don't understand why you go through all the trouble of compiling your own from source when there are excellent PPA with precompiled packages...
But I know, sometimes it's fun just to be able to do it!
