+Some people prefer to use <c>vdr-xineliboutput</c>, because it can also work
+remotely. We'll now teach you how to configure <c>vdr-xineliboutput</c> on your
+host and client. First, the host setup:
+</p>
+
+<pre caption="Installing vdr-xineliboutput">
+# <i>emerge vdr-xineliboutput</i>
+# <i>emerge --config vdr-xineliboutput</i>
+</pre>
<p>
-That's it, you're done! Have fun with your new video streaming capabilities.
+Adding command line options at this point is crucial for your softdevice to
+work. For more options, see <c>vdr --help</c>.
</p>
+<pre caption="Adding command line options to /etc/conf.d/vdr.xineliboutput">
+_EXTRAOPTS="--local=none --remote=37890"
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+The next step is to edit <path>/etc/vdr/svdrphosts.conf</path>. This file
+describes a number of host addresses that are allowed to connect to the SVDRP
+port of the video disk recorder running on the host system.
+</p>

+You must restart VDR for the changes to take effect:
+</p>
+
+<pre caption="Restarting VDR">
+# <i>/etc/init.d/vdr restart</i>
+* Stopping vdr ... [ ok ]
+* Preparing start of vdr:
+* config files ... [ ok ]
+* Waiting for prerequisites (devices nodes etc.) ... [ ok ]
+* Starting vdr ... [ ok ]
+* Waiting for working vdr ... [ ok ]
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+Now, simply <c>emerge media-plugins/vdr-xineliboutput</c> on your client, and
+start it.
+</p>
+
+<pre caption="Client setup">
+# <i>emerge vdr-xineliboutput</i>

+Sit back and enjoy your new video streaming capabilities. :)
