I've read (but misunderstood) that ext3 and ext2 have exactly the same 
way to record on a disk, and you can sitch from ext2 to ext3 and back 
without to format the partition, the difference is in a diary and a 
different checkin method.

Anyway, it's only dvb-mplex that complains about the merging of vdr 
file, as mplayer or mencoder don't and that on the same file.

I'm trying dvb-mplex on a merged file with the new cat version 5.

Thanks for your concern.

Nicolas.
