Hello Klaus!

Thank you for your quick answer. The problem I'm encountering is that the
recordings doesn't work too on card 2. Card 1 is set to primary
device. Therefore the recordings should be done first in the second card,
isn't it?
On every attempt to record I've got an emergency exit of VDR.

Any hints?

Thx a lot!
