Hello klaus
One of the changes you introduced in 1.7.16 does prevent the deletion of ".del" directories and the files inside of video.01, video.02 and so on.
Only the del directories in video.00 with the symbolic links are cleaned up by the removing recordings thread.
I guess it is caused by this change from 1.7.15:
- Fixed following symbolic links in RemoveFileOrDir().
This bug has been confirmed by other users in vdr-portal.
Any ideas what I can change in the code until 1.7.17 comes out?
Thanks and regards

The patch was originally suggested by "atinar" at
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?postid=920661#post920661
and I adopted it with a suggestion from "Urig". Looks like nobody tested the patch in
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?postid=936545#post936545
otherwise this malfunction might have been detected earlier ;-)
Unless "atinar" or somebody else comes up with a fixed version of this patch, I'll simply revert to the previous version.
