[mythtv-users] re-recording after hard drive crash

Sometime today my mythtv storage hard drive crashed. The database was
on a different disk and was backed up anyway, but the recordings were
too large for easy backups, so they are gone. Not too big of a deal, I
can re-record most things I actually cared about, but I'd like to tell
myth to do so in a semi-automatic way. What I'm thinking of is this:
delete from recorded;
update oldrecorded set duplicate=0 where recstatus= -3;
My hope is that doing that will cause myth to forget that it has
recorded everything I just lost recordings for, and my existing
recording rules will then cause it to re-record most of what I lost. Am
I missing anything or about to royally screw up my database?
Thanks for any advice,
Curtis
