Had something similar once, because of missing write access to a folder. VDR fails and tries again and again. There is no 'giving up' state for VDR. > Is that fixed in newer releases? Just compared sources, there are no relevant changes in that area between .18 and .23. So I would guess that updating wont solve your problem. In that case where your disk did run full: Did you have remaining *.del recordings waiting for cleanup? Are you sure there were *.rec recordings that were free for deleting? These clean up old recordings rules are *very* tricky. I'm working on a patch that marks 'ready to delete' recordings, because I usually let VDR decide what to delete and when. (just dont have the time to get it completed.) As long as you dont see what may get deleted, this strategy is a mine field. Cheers, Udo
