==Description==
==Description==
A Plugin is a program extension of [[VDR]], which can be reloaded as a library at runtime of the program.
Plugins are small software programs, which are used by another program to extend its functionality. Plugins, such as those for VDR, are typically implemented as shared libraries and cannot run standalone.


A plugin only needs to be recompiled if the plugin interface API version has changed in VDR. Some plugins are dependent on additional VDR patches in order to achieve the desired function.
VDR provides an easy to use plugin interface that allows additional functionality to be added to the program by implementing a dynamically loadable library file. This interface allows programmers to develop additional functionality for VDR completely separate from the core VDR source, without the need of patching the original VDR code (and all the problems of correlating various patches).


==List==
==Installation==
* see [[Plugin Installation]]
Many plugins were written for VDR and it is most likely that this list here is not up-to-date.
* Special features are described on the corresponding plugin page.


==Liste==
As you might possibly know there are different version of VDR available, the stable branch, designated for the end-user with a fixed plugin interface and the developer branch for the advanced and adventures user where everything is in a state of flux.
{{Box Info|

Plugins last updated before VDR-1.7.0, can to be found in the [[List of outdated Plugins]].<br>
As the developer versions are normally rather stable most users tend to use them and hence many developers adapt their plugins to the latest VDR developer version. But this list doesn't show the VDR version needed for a plugin.
Most likely that list here is not up-to-date, you may want to search on the [http://www.vdr-wiki.de German wiki] for newer informations.}}

Description

A Plugin is a program extension of VDR, which can be reloaded as a library at runtime of the program.

A plugin only needs to be recompiled if the plugin interface API version has changed in VDR. Some plugins are dependent on additional VDR patches in order to achieve the desired function.
