Well, I guess I will see if it happens again ... It hasn't so far..

I used your mythrestore script that you linked to earlier this month.
BTW, when I ran the restore script (not telling it which backup to
use) the documentation states that it will use the latest backup
available.
It didn't. It used the oldest back.
I keep 5 days worth of backup, I had Thursday 21st, Friday 22nd,
Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. After the restore the latest
recording it would show was data of last Thursday...
I deleted the mysql database and re-ran the restore script, this time
telling it what backup to use and it worked.
