live-xxxxxxxxxxxx files

[haverer2]

hello!
Just wondering if there's a setting to auto delete the live-xxxxxxxx files that appear in my c:\temp folder.
I'm guessing they remain there if something hasn't exited as it should have etc. Not really a problem, but over time it builds into quite a list, taking up space.

I guess I could just write a batch file to delete them and schedule it once a day - but...

THanks,
John

You could add something to your PostUpdateEPG.bat that would remove them. Say the following:
for %%f in (C:\temp\live-*) do echo %%f

They're supposed to auto delete when no longer needed. If it cant delete them for some reason, then they're remembered for later removal. Are using the NextPVR UI, or something else (like XBMC etc)? NextPVR itself should clean these up when run.

I do occasionally use the actual NPVR interface, but usually the XBMC one... I guess that's why they are kept down in number... NPVR must be deleting them when I use that, and then they slowly grow again.

I like it - thanks for the tip.
