Personally I don't use that field in any way, so if we could agree on some delimiting character that separates 'description' from 'comment', as in ...:Description of what happens#some arbitrary comment where '#' would be that new delimiter. Everything before the delimiter would go into the 'description', and everything after it would simply be stored and otherwise ignored by VDR. If we do this I would also like to make the use of the high 16 bit of the 'status' field obsolete, since this information can and should then be stored in the 'comment'. Klaus
