These lines show that it is finding recordings that it will try to expire
in order to free up space.

And here's where it shows that it needs to free up some space and wants to
delete a recording, but can't find the file for it.

Where is the file for chanid 1013 @ 2007-03-11T03:00:00 located at?  Is
it /mythtv/recordings/area2/1013_20070311030000.mpg (or .nuv) or is it
somewhere else?

Looks like the same issue down the line.

This makes me wonder, because it found this file in 'area1' and not 'area2'.
How are your backends and Storage Groups setup?

Since it didn't find any files on the area2 filesystem that can be expired,
it could't delete anything.
