First because i have 4 Videovolumes (check if there is a link, kill the original file etc.pp.). Second i like it to kill recordings during recordings and then i don't want the kill process to start (like VDR is doing it, it only tries to delete recordings during a recording when there is not enough space for the current recording) because to excessive fileoperations sometimes brings errors into my recordings. > Best regards, Jori Thanks for the hint :) /hgm.bg
