Is the channel number even necessary information to store in a dirname? I've experienced many times where channels have been shuffled (requiring a rescanning & a new channels.conf) so channel 100 could be one network today and a different one tomorrow. Maybe a better choice would be using the channel
shortname,
for example: YYYY-MM-DD-hh.mm.CNN-ri.rec YYYY-MM-DD-hh.mm.BBC-ri.rec
I don't know how VDR work, but I think it will be wise to have a file with the same filename and ".info" or even ".epg" extension that will have relevant EPG section for the recorded program including full channel name.
That's all already contained in the 'info' file of a recording.
Great! So I didn't reinvent the wheel :)
If the recording timer was set manualy, maybe it should include all programs that lay between start and end of the recording.
It stores the EPG data of the longest broadcast within the timer window.
That's fine if only one program is intended to be recorded. What if someone wants to record a bunch of programs? There are lots of music shows in the night between 31/12 and 01/01 of every year. With old tape recorder I just pressed REC and hope that the tape will contain as many programs as possible. In such case I would like to see all recorded programs descriptions.
