Excuse for my bad English ...
I have problem with streamdev plugin.
My configuration - OpenSuse 10.3,vdr1.5.12, S* , DXR3, streamdev( last and cvs also ), and many other.... VDR works perfectly cca 1 year 
! But :
I've got server side VDR ( with S* and two budget cards Skystar2 ) and client side on the same machine - PC in two different directories. Other machines (VDR client and WinClient) are connected to these vdr server over LAN
VDR version - client a nd server < 1.5.0 ( tested with 1.4.3,1.4.5,1.4.7,.. ) and streamdev ( versin from 2007 and CVS also) :
- all channels on the client side works perfectly including encrypted channels.
- it's not possible to edit channels.conf ( CAID - values 5 - 16 for streamdev)!
VDR server versions from 1.4.3 to 1.5.12 - vs. client 1.4.3 - 1.4.7 ( < 1.5.0)
- all channels on the client side works perfectly including encrypted channels.
It works perfectly also on the other machines in LAN !
VDR server ( version 1.4.3 to 1.5.12 ) vs. client > 1.5.0 ( tested with 1.5.2,1,5.5,1.5.9,..,1.5.12 )
- works ONLY free channels on client side !!!!
- edit channels.conf , change CAID to 5, 6, ...9 - only FTA channels !!!
- edit channels.conf , change CAID to 10 - works FTA and encrypted channels channels, but the channels have to selected ( changed ) 2 times !!!
It works perfectly also on the other machines in LAN with VLC, VDR client(without modified CAID !), also Windows clients .
Problem is on the client side VDR, when server and client are on the same machine, can you help me ? Server site starts first with all DVB card, client site starts after the server site is started. Client side is started with non existing number DVB card ( e.g. 5 ... ) . It works with VDR < 1.5.10, but it's not working with VDR client > 1.5.0.
--- Sorry for s*
Thank you.
