VDR works only with VDR - the Satip plugin is for Client use - VDR offers not much in this direction.
Tvh is quite easy - you install it - setup your network and activate the Sat>IP Server - then you are done basicly. (for Sat>IP you have NO channels to configure server side)
I had a few requests resently for the minisatip addon (I build it today/tommorow) - minisatip is a Sat>IP server - start - done.
