The problem is that the VPS code in vdr.c avoids devices that are
currently recording. And since this is a rather complex area,
I'm not sure if it's too good an idea to change this ;-)

If you feel like it, you may want to take a look at the code under

  // Find a device that provides the required transponder:

in vdr.c. Maybe you can come up with a better solution...
