     Hi!

>From manual:

"<table id> is a hex number that indicates the table this event is
contained in (if this is left empty or 0 this event will not be 
overwritten or modified by data that comes from the DVB stream)"

I want VDR to overwrite events which I have imported from external source.
What should I set as table id for external events? What will happen if I 
set recording for event, which will be replaced by data from DVB stream?

The events from the DVB data stream have table ids in the range 0x4E..0x6F.
VDR only overwrites events if the new ID is not higher than the existing one.
In your case I suggest you use anything >= 0x70.

Assuming this is not a VPS recording, VDR will just assign the best matching
event to the timer.
