[0.2] or [0.3] XBMC as default frontend

Using yaVDR 0.2 with all the updates ...

If I use "xine@vdr-plugin-xine" and start xbmc from there, LiveTV (IPTV) is working. If I change the setting (web config) to "XBMC@vdr-plugin-streamdev (experimental)", XBMC is started automatically but I can't see LiveTV anymore. And it crashes a lot.

Plugins are configured (using VNSI client).

Does the frontend selection (in web config) change some other settings, or maybe even stops some needed services?

How to configure XBMC as default frontend?

Upgraded to yaVDR v0.3 (upgrade and dist-upgrade).

Still the same problem. I can't config XBMC to be the default frontend (VNSI).

Ideas?

Manually changed the file: /etc/init/vdr-frontend to start-xbmc-frontend.
Now it sort of works (after 3 reboots).

I've tested some more, after the last update (the update reseted my "hack" back to default "vdr-sxfe@vdr-plugin-xineliboutput") and again IPTV stopped working.

After reapplying the change in vdr-frontend file, everything got back to working again.

I don't exactly know the difference, I didn't have time to check all the scripts. Thought it still might help someone.

edit:
after the last update VNSI also started to "shut down in 5 minutes" so I edited the setup (/etc/vdr/setup.conf), changed MinUserInactivity to 0 and rebooted.
[ dont forget to stop VDR before editing the config ]
