Just wondering if there has been a change to the way recording are deleted.
Noticed that when I now delete a recording some associated files are still left behind in the folder, looks like its a map file.
Previously I thought all files associated to that particular recording were deleted.

For the same reason, I suspect that (some time ago) I modified this property in my config.xml to include .ts.map files in the list of files extensions that should also be deleted when a recording is deleted.

<DeleteAdditionalExtensions>ts.map,jpg,srt,txt,xml,log,nfo,tbn</DeleteAdditionalExtensions>

The actual default is quite different now but isn't update if you customize it. There will be some historical map files from older version of NextPVR that were locking it on exit. If you do mp4 conversion include those too.

Code:
<DeleteAdditionalExtensions>srt,txt,log,d2a,edl,csv,bat,wme,vprj,logo.txt,dvbsub,sm,xml,map,m3u8,thumbnails,timing</DeleteAdditionalExtensions>

yes, I looked at the default and noticed the presence of thumbnails,timing. However these files actually still get deleted even though I don't have them listed in my (custom) property so there is something "non-obvious" going on here.

Yes sub did some work on the internal defaults for those that had edited config.xml, not sure what they are.
