However, it is contained in the recording's directory name, so that in case two timers of the same VDR instance record the exact same programme, but on different channels, they don't mix their data into one big pile of goo (which could have happenend in VDR 1= 1.7.2). No need to make this a string - it's just a safety precaution (besides, two channels might have the *same* name, but never the same number).
