You can symlink the partition into the first partition as directory. Not
very clean, but should work for playback.

(but be aware that VDR's delete-old-recordings strategy expects that
deleting a recording /video/symlink/recording results in free space in
/video, and VDR may delete everything in /video/symlink/ quickly if this
is not part of any recording folder.)

The alternative is to do all the linking of files manually, just as VDR
would have done it.

Cheers,

Udo
