Ok, this weekend I did something stupid. On one of my frontends I
went into mythVideo and did "Scan for changes" without having
/var/lib/mythvideo properly mounted. mythTV then went ahead and blew
away the entirety of my video database, including custom player
commands, poster associations and such.
It's not a really big deal. I have a database backup from not too
long ago and can fix the recent changes fairly easily, but it still
seems to me like perhaps this kind of operation is a little too
trigger happy. It would be nice to have some sort of user
confirmation before rows are deleted.
