the code already is in a seperate repository. And is basically isolated in a single demuxer and single input device. Some people still complain that it exists About the community i do not know what the majority wants. About users iam fairly confident that they prefer having the option to use it than not having the option. thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB it is not once nor twice but times without number that the same ideas make their appearance in the world. -- Aristotle
