When VDR uses more than one directory it always stores the basic
information in the _first_ directory, and links to data files in
the other directories. So if you have _two_ video directories that
have previously been used separately, you can't join them together
just like that. VDR can only use several video directories if the
recordings were also stored with the same group of directories.
