[vdr] Re: Sort recordings in sub-menus and simply hide recordings

[Gerhard Achs <gerhard.achs@gmx.at>]

Hello,

try this one :


#!/bin/bash
basename=`basename $0`
TMPFILE=/tmp/$basename.tmp

function hide_it ()
{
  find $dir -name *.rec > $TMPFILE
  for old in `cat $TMPFILE`; do
        new=`tr ".rec" ".hid" <<EOF
$old
EOF`;
        mv $old $new
  done;
}
function unhide_it ()
{
  find $dir -name *.hid > $TMPFILE
  for old in `cat $TMPFILE`; do
        new=`tr ".hid" ".rec" <<EOF
$old
EOF`;
        mv $old $new
  done;
}

if [ ! $1 ]; then echo "Usage: $basename directory [-u]"
exit 1;
fi;

if [ ! $2 ]; then dir=$1;

elif
  [ $1 = '-u' ]; then unhide="true";
        dir=$2;
  elif [ $2 = '-u' ]; then unhide="true";
        dir=$1;

fi


if [ ! $unhide ]; then hide_it;
else unhide_it;
fi



Regards,

Gerhard
