i have an even better idea :-)

what about a special atribute on one recording which tells vdr
to delete that recording in case of ENOSPC? (and stop recording after that)
this would save us from having 1gb (=half an hour) "unused" 

private wish: vdr should check also when not recording for
the free diskspace and go the standart way 
-> low disk space 
-> try to remove old recording 
-> ... space again available

practical reason for this ... i have a sambashare on the same partition 
with the video dir .. and users cry bitterly if there is no space left for 
"files" ;-)
