VDR Remote X   version 0.4
--------------------------

VDR Remote X is an application to launch and control Klaus Schmindinger's Video Disk Recorder (VDR, http://www.tvdr.de) on desktop. It is
designed and developed on Mac OS X, but as it is done with Qt it should eventually be possible to compile and run it for other platforms also.

VDR Remote X encapsulates two application processes to one application. VDR is run in the background and is invisible for UI. MacVDRClient from softdevice plugin is used for video window. VDR can be controlled with keyboard when video window is active or with mouse or keyboard when using the on-screen remote controller.

See INSTALL file for compiling and running instructions.
