Why would you have to put them in there manually?
If that were the case, the vdr subdirectory feature would be much less
useful and vdr would be inconsistent with itself.

The timer entry determines where the recording goes - including subdirectory.

I use epg2timers to create all my timer entries and epg2timers is designed
to create exactly the scheme I described in my first mail in this thread,
i.e. /video/genre/title/subtitle/*.rec
Pure coincidence, of course. ;-)

I do not know how other tools like the tvtv plugin or the HTML vdr frontend
handle that, but the option is definitely available to them as well, so I
would assume that they provide it to their users.

IMHO, it comes down to this: If you have just a few recordings, you do not
need subdirectories, but you also do not need multiple disks. ;-)
