Your config is ok, but vdr writes the big ???.vdr (mpeg2) files to an
emptier disk and set links to this disk. All other related files are
written to the first disk in your configuration. So, if you have īolderī
files, move them to the first disk - all newer written files appeares
correctly.

The second and better way ist the use of LVM, described in the mail of
Juergen Scherer from 7:51pm thist evening.

BTW: Itīs better to use the config like below.

DVBDIR="../DVB/driver"
VDRPRG="./vdr"
VDRCMD="$VDRPRG -v /video0 -w 60 -l 2 -p 0" 

Gruss,
 Christoph
