Well  that is good news ;o))

I started out with zero (the way it was before I added the other
card),  I believe. Then I tried 1 then 2 and later a much higher
number like 40 or 50. I tried this with instant recordings (so I
didn't change the priority of the timer -- most likely this is
my problem, right?) I haven't tried it with a scheduled recording
(where I can define the timer priority before the recording
actually starts). I'll give it a go with two scheduled timers
the next time around. However, I think VDR should exhibit
this behavior for one-touch recordings, too. Did you change
anything in this part from 1.1.17 up? (haven't tried the above
with 1.1.27 yet) One touch recordings may be a special case,
since they use the predefined priority (which is the same for
every one touch recording) which you can't change the "instant"
the recording starts. With a scheduled timer you can change
the priority at the time you create the timer.

Greetz,
Reinhard
