Wouldn't this be something for the FAQ-Section on vdrnews.de (I'm pretty sure this has been asked a couple times before)?

Q:
How do I concatenate several ???.vdr files into one so that VDR can play them?

A: 
Concatenate the files with "cat 0??.vdr>output.vdr"
Then generate a new index with "genindex".
Rename "output.vdr" to "001.vdr" and/or move it to a location where VDR can find it.

You can get genindex as sourcefile from http://linvdr.org/download/tools/genindex.c
For compiling and the usage of genindex please see the source code.
