I think what you are describing is totally unrelated to the problem.
Its more likely some timing issue between starting vdr and when the
network resource is available. It's kind of sick to share between 2
linux boxes with samba anyway - you might not want that. Check the
next time if a touch .update does fix that, and check if the file
share was available at the time of last directory scanner run.
