+By default VDR assumes that the video directory consists of one large
+volume, on which it can store its recordings. If you want to distribute your
+recordings over several physical drives, you can derive from <tt>cVideoDirectory</tt>,
+as in
+
+<p><table><tr><td class="code"><pre>
+#include &lt;vdr/videodir.h&gt;
+
+class cMyVideoDirectory : public cVideoDirectory {

+  cMyVideoDirectory(void);

+You should create your derived video directory object in the
+<a href="#Getting started"><tt>Start()</tt></a> function of your plugin.
+Note that the object has to be created on the heap (using <tt>new</tt>),
+and you shall not delete it at any point (it will be deleted automatically
+when the program ends).
