Okay, that with the tag is no problem, but editing the summary before the
recording e.g. with vdradmin and then don't find this "description" in vdr
after the recording , seems strange to me (i see the advantage to have the
epg-description of the recording, but what happens if you record two movies
in one recording or overlap a quarter hour to be sure to have the end
recorded - than you only have the last EPG-description?), why not use one of
the remaining color-buttons if you open the info of recording (afaik there
only red and green in use) ?
