I just typed xbmc in google images.  Wasn't really impressed with the
screenshots I saw.  None were as good as that Reel skin imo.

Nope, but no interest in using Xbox for that either.  But would gladly
use that Reel skin with VDR!

I've wondered the same thing myself.  I really like that skin.  Along
with the new support for hdtv and so on, it would be nice if the osd
finally got a nice overhaul.  VDR would be unstoppable! :)

I always thought it would be cool if VDR was able to pull a
poster/cover and IMDB summary of movies but I doubt we'd see that in
vdr core.  A plugin maybe.  I'd think a cache somewhere would be far
more effecient then using epg.data for that though.

I can't imagine why you would want to mix movies and epg data
together.  The size of that file would grow tremendously which I
assume would have nothing but adverse affects.  I don't really see the
point of pictures either.  Can you elaborate on what purpose this
would serve?

Re: [vdr] [ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 1.7.4

Have VDR-1.7.4 up and running with nexus-s so far.  And plenty of
timers set so recording & playback testing will be extensive. :)

You can return to the previous channel by pressing 0.

I don't know that the faster channel change time (if it even would be
faster) would be worth the effort.  My channel changes are 1-2
seconds.  Sure I wish it was instant but I think I'll live.  I usually
change the channel manually or using the guide.  Don't remember ever
doing sequential changes but I guess someone out there does. :)
