[vdr] priority -1 too low to trigger deleting an old recording

2016-02-18 Thread Peter Münster 
Hi,

On my system, disk usage is always about 99%, because VDR cares about
deleting old recordings, when needed.

But when editing a recording, the automatic deletion fails:

--8<---cut here---start->8---
17:36:28 vdr[28116]: [28116] info: Editing process started
17:36:50 vdr[28116]: [28834] low disk space while recording, trying to remove a 
deleted recording...
17:36:50 vdr[28116]: [28834] ...no deleted recording found, priority -1 too low 
to trigger deleting an old recording

17:37:01 vdr[28116]: [28834] low disk space while recording, trying to remove a

17:37:10 vdr[28116]: [28116] ERROR: Editing process failed!
--8<---cut here---end--->8---

How could I make VDR delete old recordings, when low on disk space
because of an editing process please?

TIA for any hints,
-- 
   Peter

Question: has anyone successfully run vdr-2.0.3 or -2.2.0 with the 4.2.0
kernel using a PCIe card? And while we're at it, a PCIe USB3 card with a
harddisk attached? It seems that some kernel buffer starts choking after,
like, 150 or more GB have been transferred. If that is a common problem
(on any Ubuntu distro running the wily HWE kernel or on 15.10 itself) it
should be mentioned somewhere - no idea where. vdr-wiki.de maybe.



I am running Ubuntu 15.10,

uname -a
Linux xpc 4.2.0-27-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 22 04:49:08 UTC 2016 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


dpkg -l
ii  vdr 2.0.6-2amd64Video 
Disk Recorder for DVB cards


PCIe DVBSky T982 and T980C cards (cable), total 5 adapters

I don't have this problem.

yours,
Jouni
