OK, thanks a lot, I will then just have to wait and see what comes :)

I am sure this can be discssed endlessly :)

Hmm, that is a good point. 
VDR could save the Infirmation from which channel it has recorded this and
based on the chanels lists then decide who is allowed to watch this. Old
recordings is another thing though. Here it could be done by
allowing/disallowing subdirectories. there are lots of possibilities.
And what about .avi's, ... ?  ;) (could be done by mounting the
avi-filesystem only if the right pin was entered)

I know that this is not very easy, I just wanted to know if Klaus was
thinking about going that direction.
