I think the expiration of LiveTV files before regular recordings is currently broken because ProgramInfo::SetAutoExpire takes a boolean so the calls to pginfo->SetAutoExpire(10000) are the same as pginfo->SetAutoExpire(true) and older non-live recordings would get expired first. I'm about to commit a patch that will convert ProgramInfo::SetAutoExpire(bool) to ProgramInfo::SetAutoExpire(int) so LiveTV recordings should get expired first. > > Any interest in assigning livetv files to a 'LiveTV' category that > doesn't automatically appear under 'All Programs'? This would keep > the recordings separated and easily assessible, unless I'm missing I think it's better to use a LiveTV Recording Group, then we can "save" LiveTV programs just be changing their Recording Group to something else (and changing the autoexpire and any other fixups necessary at the same time, but the GUI wouldn't have to change to allow saving of LiveTV. > the category so that it shows up under All Programs.

This should be fixed once I commit the patch I mention above, then we just have to handle expiring shorter LiveTV clips first (and more frequently). -- Chris
