Hi all,
at the moment I am working to tight up vdr-plugin-dxr3 and found something to verify. Is about cDevice::SetPlayMode with pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED. If pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED is used, a device plugin gives the control of its device to e.g. mplayer or xine. In this state it is not possible to call PlayVideo, etc., as the plugin has no control about its device. Can it happen hat vdr or any vdr-plugin calls PlayVideo, etc in this state?

VDR itself probably won't do this, because in order to use pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED you'll need to a player that's implemented via a plugin (VDR itself never uses pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED ;-).
As for other plugins, I don't know.
