Can you give an example for a complete recording path name that should be ready for deletion in your opinion? For VDR-1.7.x, please also post the info file. Oh, and please don't copy into a new mail, just hit the reply button, and make sure it goes to vdr@linuxtv.org.

I have a lot of recordings, and they all have a lifetime of 0. See also the following info file: VDR deletes old recordings if - Disk space on the root video directory is less than 1Gb (39 min) - The recording is on the file system(s) of the root video directory - The recording is not edited (does not start with %) - The guaranteed lifetime has expired (99 never expires) - In case of lifetime=0, the current recording needs higher priority than the old recording The first two rules about the root video directory do account for everything within the usual /video.00, /video.01, etc. folders, but not any directory trees mounted to sub-directories. So if you mount a disk to /video/archive, disk space will not count there, and nothing will be deleted.
