files that are managed by services directly usually go into /var/lib/SERVICE/, e.g. channels.conf is updated automatically or when you shuffle channels in menu. Files that are meant to be edited by root go into /etc. The configuration files in /etc are readonly to non-root users/services.

Hi All,
I have build VDR systems based on arch linux and debian. On both, one half of the configuration files in is /etc/vdr, the other half in /var/lib/vdr.
Why has the location /var/lib/vdr been choosen for the configuration files?
Best regards,
Cedric
