I'm responding to this thread for clarification of misinformation I've
posted. In hindsight mythbuntu control center did not restore a mythconverg
backup, it was a mythbuntu backup that got me going again, and had I used
the command line as per the Wiki I could have restored the mythconverg
backup from the previous day, and not had to prune my recordings so
drastically. I was able to confirm this on a rsync backup on a different
disc, different box. Moving forward I'm no longer using MCC, just the
command line, now that I have a fair grasp of the Wiki, I should be able to
rectify this sort of problem without interruption of database or
recordings. Furthermore I'm hoping that inserting the "optimize_mythdb.pl"
into the "mythtv_database" script will prevent this problem all together.
Many thanks to all respondents, and to the devs for such an amazing system,
my wife and I really enjoy watching shows in the evening without all the
interspersed noise. Myth TV Rocks.    Daryl
