VDR just hides the recording, and does the actual deleting later on in background. Unfortunately, the recording wont be added to free space until it is deleted. The actual deleting only happens if VDR is idle (no recordings, no playback, no menus, no external connections, etc.), or if VDR is in urgent need of disk space for recording/cutting. (urgent need is less than 1G or 38min left) Deleting can be done manually, by deleting folders matching *.del in /video, though additional care must be taken in case of multi-disk /video0 /video1 etc. folders. The first idle delete check will be 6 minutes after VDR start, and then every 60 minutes. In case that VDR is busy, this will be delayed and happens just the moment VDR gets idle. (which can be a little annoying if you just stopped playback) After one recording actually got deleted, VDR deletes the remaining ones in 10s steps. Imho there's a little bug that causes this delay to be 0s if the 60min timeout did not hit an idle moment. (which can be a little annoying if you just stopped playback *g*) Cheers, Udo
