I just tried that and it did resume the VPS recording just fine after restarting VDR.

However, I guess this will have to be yet another setup parameter. And it should control the maximum overtime, so that it doesn't matter how long the original scheduled time is. After all, somebody might want to record a show that runs for more than 8 hours... I'll see what I can do in version 1.5. Klaus
