Hi Klaus,

In connection to my previous message could this patch be added to vdr core?

A very small patch instead of a plugin is at
http://www.u32.de/vdr-1.3.37-simple_record_sort-0.1.diff

Just press 0 (zero) in the recording list and the sorting toggles between
date and name. The sorting is not saved. 

The patch is against 1.3.37. But it should work with older and younger
versions too.

Gruss,
  Walter
