It is necessary because you would still want the link to the primary
video directory. Otherwise there would be a name collision.

The idea about specifying a target directory is fine. But more important
for me is that all the files of a cutted recording (???.vdr, index.vdr,
marks.vdr, summary.vdr) are stored together at the destination and only
links from the primary video directory are used. 

Currently I use a Perl script which does exactly this. I either specify
a target directory or none. In the first case all vdr files of a
recording are migrated to the target. In the second case it looks for a
directory with enough space and migrates all files to this destination.
