[QUOTE="TomC13, post: 1074211, member: 146905"] Logs attached. 2014-03-18 Installed MediaPortal Pre-existing ~500 .wtv files from Windows Media Center 2014-04-05 Switched to Argus TV. MP TVService was stopped and Disabled. 2014-04-06 Wanted to eliminate a large number of older recordings, deleting one by one from the GUI would have been tedious. Did test: deleted 1 file from disk checked Recorded TV list, still there exited and restarted MP, still there deleted one row for that file from MySql - either 'mptvdb.recording' or 'argustv.recording', not sure which (yes, I know that may have messed something up) checked Recorded TV list, still there from the Recorded TV screen menu selected Clean-up, All invalid recordings, acknowledged 2 prompts All 534 recordings got wiped, including recordings made by MP recorder 2 days before. Its not clear if any recordings made by Argus existed at that point. See MediaPortal.log [2014-04-06 18:27:12,860] Using Recuva, was able to recover ~200 files. (If I had thought to immediately stop the Argus TV Recorder service I may have been able to recover more.) [/QUOTE]
