[vdr] PVR350, analogtv plugin, mp1e

i installed vdr-1.3.33, analogtv-0.9.37 and xine-0.7.6.
I have a Hauppauge PVR350.

I edited /video/channels.conf to have a single entry:

S 25:335250:C0D45B6:C:0:301:300:0:A0:12003:0:0:0

vdr complained if the 10th entry was 0, so i added another

I also installed "mp1e" from the analogtv homepage, it is in
rte-09sep04.tar.bz2.  I thought this one should match the
analogtv plugin.  There were no newer versions available.

I now start vdr:

vdr -Panalogtv -Pxine

In another shell i start:

xine "vdr:/tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes"

xine starts up and displays the OSD of vdr.  vdr also tries
to start "mp1e", but gives command line options that mp1e
does not understand, e.g. "-j".  So there is no output to
the xine plugin.

1. Why do i need "mp1e" at all, the card already creates an
   MPEG output stream.  Is this not used at all?  So i could
   also use my old BTTV card?

2. How can i get a valid output to the "xine" plugin?

Best regards,
