The script is using these upper 16 bits to identify which timers have been added by the script and which have been added or changed manually. This is done by setting an id (magic number) in these upper 16 bits. Later, only timers which have this id are touched (modified) by the script. The thing I like is the fact that (from vdr.5) "When a user modifies an active timer, the upper 16 bits of this unsigned 32 bit parameter will be explicitly set to 0." Because of this, my script doesn't overwrite manual changes of the timers. How can this be achieved in your new concept? (Any positive answer is ok for me - it is no problem to change my script.)
