No. When DISH does a free-some-premium-channel-weekend, I add in the free channels and delete them as soon as the weekend ends and the recordings work without problems.

When something like this happens, I usually go into the mythconverg directory (/var/lib/mysql/mythconverg for me) and run myisamchk -r *.MYI. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

In the MYTHCONVERG database, the RECORDED table contains all of the information (assuming it's still there). Using the combination of CHANID, STARTTIME and ENDTIME you can work out which file is which.

Re: [mythtv-users] Where did my recordings go!!
Wonderful stuff - thats what I wanted to hear!! As to why the changing of a capture card should cause the whole lot to disappear is a total mis[t]ery (sic) to me :-)) Ho hum - something else to play with tonight then..
