Deleted recorded mpg files still on gbpvr recorded progs

[johnnyb]

I normally delete recorded programs in bulk using windows explorer on the pc when disk space is a bit low -- because it is quite slow to use the gbpvr interface on either pc or mvp. I have just noticed that deleted programs still appear on the gbpvr 'recorded programs' listing. The 'play' option is missing. It is only possible to 'delete' or 'exit', so gbpvr has probably detected the file is missing. My new gbpvr install uses the sqllite db. All previous installs used access. Is this a bug? Is it possible to change to previous functionality so files which are missing are automatically deleted from the gbpvr recorded programs?

Do you have this setting in config.xml? Because if you do, then the files really should disappear in the recordings listing...

Code:

<AutoRemoveMissingRecordings>true</AutoRemoveMissingRecordings>

Many thanks Stefan. That's sorted the problem.

Thats the default setting, so you must have changed it manually at some point.

I didn't. It was a fresh install. I don't normally play with config.xml, and hadn't touched it all on this install. Just so you know - it could be a bug, albeit a minor one.

Same here, my AutoRemoveMissingRecordings is set to false after a new install of 98.13b. Unless you can change it in the config program, I've never edited my config.xml manually.
