+GXINE KEYBINDINGS
+=================
+
+And similarly for gxine...
+
+You'll find several VDR-specific keybindings in gxine's key binding editor:
+
+		Used for VDR				VDR-specific
+
+	"Play"		Menu bindings			"Red"
+	"Pause"		Number key bindings		"Green"
+	"Stop"		"Volume +"			"Yellow"
+	"Up"		"Volume -"			"Blue"
+	"Down"		"Mute"				"Record"
+	"Left"						"Power"
+	"Right"		"Select/OK"			"Back"
+	"Rewind / Back 1 min"				"Audio"
+	"Fast forward / Forward 1 min"
+
+You'll notice that the menu bindings have their VDR functions in [brackets].
+	
+If not all of these bindings are present, try "Add new default bindings"
+from the Reload menu; if they still aren't, you're running an older version
+of gxine.
+
+The volume control bindings assume that VDR is passing volume control events
+back to gxine - in the xine plugin's configuration, you need
+	Control xine's volume	Yes
+	Muting			Execute
+for these bindings to work.

+XINE-LIB CONFIG
+===============
+
+This applies whether you're using xine, gxine or some other xine-lib front
+end.

 a lot of data into xine's buffers and therefore VDR's progress indicator is
