    "adding 3 lines" is just an expression, maybe it's 300 lines, maybe only 1, I don't know.
    Questions are :
    - Is making "IsRecording" public inside TVServer enough ?
    And if yes, will it work in multi-seats case ?
    OR
    - Should it be integraded in g_player ?
    OR
    - Would we prefer to make it each times MP client do actions where media fullscreen is possible ?
    And if it is this choice retained, what about others 3rd parts plugins (OnlineVideos, maybe VLC,...) for manage red dot ?
    OR
    - Other.....

    It's the 'TV' client plug-in you should be looking at, not the 'server' part (which may be local or remote). But the TV plug-in source code is part of the 'TvEngine3' project - see MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1

    The client and server communicate via the OS network stack, so it should work the same for all configurations (in theory).

    Remember that the TV plug-in is an optional feature of the MP client - it might not be installed or enabled, so whatever you implement must behave correctly (e.g. not crash or throw error exceptions) when the TV plug-in is not present, TV Server is not installed, not running, or not available on the network.

    I think if you work out how the TV plug-in updates the 'red dot' indicator information in the skin engine (when it's the foreground activity in the GUI), that will give you a big clue how to extend that to the other players, My *guess* is that it has a periodic task running from a thread which queries TV Server and/or the TV database for the recording status.

    TVClient -polls the server constantly, I at the top gave an example of how to fill the property to show the red dot. This property will be available globally in the Media Portal. I just can not check. But there are changes - two lines.

    Small update: Latest changes of @ajs in LMH works perfect: starting a recording from inside Live TV via context menu now immediately triggers the red dot ;)
    So at least we have the solution with latest LMH ;) THX @ajs (y)
