[vdr] VDR feature request

[Steffen Koch <Steffen.Koch@sphinx-electronics.de>]

Hello community,

what about a feature to integrate a second "primary directory" into vdr 
which is handled like video0 if you have more than one video partition. 
E.g. no symlinks pointing there but original files like the index.vdr 
summary.vdr, so you can move recordings there and play them directly 
without the need for creating symlinks in video0.
A kind of config file (maybe disks.conf) can be used to describe which 
disks belong together:

/video0 primary
/video1 video0
/video2 video0
/archive0 primary
/archive1 archive0

e.g. primary indicating that this directory shall be treated as a 
primary directory, all other names indicating the primary directory this
directory belongs to.

you then have to scan the partitions marked primary for recordings if 
changing to the recordings menu, or switch them on/off dynamically. 
Maybe using only the first found primary (with all accompanying 
directories: video1, video2 in this case) for recording and using all 
other primaries for replaying, so one could easily mount a recoring dir 
from a remote machine...

greetings
steffen
