Hello, I've got a couple of shows I'd like to rerecord. Some cases I'd like to re-record all episodes, and in other cases I'd like to re-record a specific episode. What's the easiest way to start over with a blank history for a show? What's the easiest way to re-record a particular episode? I'm familiar with phpMyAdmin, so I can get into the database and make the changes manually (if needed).
Why I need to do this: 1) I think this actually a usability issue - I wanted to start putting some "quotas" on certain shows so that I wouldn't have 20 episodes lying around. So I went into the recording profiles and selected max episode limits thinking "it will not record if there are X number of episodes already recorded. As true as that may be, I didn't realize it would actually go and delete the existing recordings to meet that number. I don't believe it's a very good thing that it would automatically delete existing recordings, the rule should apply to all NEW recordings. For example, if I set any other new setting on the recording rule (user jobs, start/stop times, transcoding, commercial flagging, etc)... it would only apply to new recordings. So anyway, I'm not sure which ones got deleted and which ones didn't. So, to fix it I'll just re-record the series and delete the ones I've already watched. 2) Every now and then an episode of a given show will be labled incorrectly. Not necessarily myth's fault, I understand that. I'm usually smart enough to remeber to selected the "delete and re-record option" for those particular instances, but other times I push buttons to quickly and it deletes with me knowing that the correct episode won't record again. This is due to human error :) Thanks! Matt _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
