Description

Please update the GPL license text (wrong FSF address) and add a small license header to each source file (see the paragraph "How to apply these terms..." in the GPL) or at least add a license disclaimer as proposed by the GPL to the README.

Just stating "see the file COPYING" is not enough. It should be clear, which GPL versions can be applied. GPL 2 only can be problematic if VDR gets ever released under GPL 3, so I suggest GPL2 or any later.
