Hi Klaus, Could you please delete line 577 from vdr.c or do something similar to let vdr continue even with read-only video directory? vdr runs fine with this patch on my system, and it's important for me, that vdr cannot write anything to the video directory.

I'm afraid we're too close to releasing version 2.0.0 to make such changes now. Besides, why don't you just use a writeable video directory and mount your read-only directory below that? Something like /video /video/readonly Klaus _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
