Hi Klaus,

In my testing, (VDR 2.20) the command vdr --genindex fails on an audio-only recording from a radio station for example.

The index file is generated during a recording, but if deleted, vdr itself cannot regenerate it, nor can the command line command. Kodi for example tries to regenerate it when playing, if it's missing, and fails. If the index is already there, it gets deleted. Is this by design, or a bug ?

It’s a bug, and a fix (provided by Thomas Reufer) will be coming to VDR 2.2.1 soon (after I return from my summer vacation ;-).

I’m attaching Thomas’ suggested patch, which I haven’t tested myself, yet. It’s against VDR version 3.3.1, so I can’t guarantee it will apply easily to version 2.2.0.

Thanks both - I'll give it a try - let you know how it goes against 2.2.0
