    0...99, defining the priority of this timer and of recordings created by this timer. 0 represents the lowest value, 99 the highest. The priority is used to decide which timer shall be started in case there are two or more timers with the exact same start time. The first timer in the list with the highest priority will be used.

    This value is also stored with the recording and is later used to decide which recording to remove from disk in order to free space for a new recording. If the disk runs full and a new recording needs more space, an existing recording with the lowest priority (and which has exceeded its guaranteed lifetime) will be removed.

    If all available DVB cards are currently occupied, a timer with a higher priority will interrupt the timer with the lowest priority in order to start recording.') %?>
    guaranteed lifetime (in days) of a recording created by this timer. 0 means that this recording may be automatically deleted at any time by a new recording with higher priority. 99 means that this recording will never be automatically deleted. Any number in the range 1...98 means that this recording may not be automatically deleted in favour of a new recording, until the given number of days since the start time of the recording has passed by.') %?>
    file name this timer will give to a recording. If the name shall contain subdirectories, these have to be delimited by \'~\' (since the \'/\' character may be part of a regular programme name).

    The special keywords TITLE and EPISODE, if present, will be replaced by the title and episode information from the EPG data at the time of recording (if that data is available). If at the time of recording either of these cannot be determined, TITLE will default to the channel name, and EPISODE will default to a blank.') %?>
