My vdr 1.7.x recordings look a bit messy. I get multiple single entries for the same show although I have put them physically on the same folder (under the _ subfolder)
How can I force vdr to re-index them?
If you don't have any entry for updating/re-reading recordings in you OSD, the common way is to "touch .update" in the appropiate directory of your recordings, the VDR will then re-read all recordings.
Or just restart VDR services, AFAIK VDR is doing also a re-read here.

What level of debugging must be enabled and what do you need to look for in the syslog to see when vdr is running a scan against the video directory?

Well, none?
