The video directory is VDR's own space, there shall be nothing else in there. If the user puts anything non-VDR related into it (even by mistake), it's their fault.

Klaus I know that and what i did - and this might not be suggested (i'm mostly happy user since 7 years now). My question was: Why ? It should not be necessary for vdr to check at all second (or third) harddisk. Going into directory hierarchy at disk one should be good enough. I could understand if vdr would blend into one structure directories/files on all harddisk without the symlinking - but fixing things like that needs to be done manually. So why not drop this checking ? What you expect to gain from checking directories not reachable symlinked from video.00 ? Its not only my use case - but also why vdr should waste time/cpu cycles to do that without gaining something. I am not going to touch this multi-directory stuff - except for removing it from VDR altogether. I was never happy with this and deeply regret ever letting me talk into implementing this...
