When you insert "recordings" by yourself ;-)

Yep, something like that.

I used to use "mythnettv importlocal ..." for that, but since switching
to MariaDB it stopped working. So I wrote my own script to insert files
into recordings. Fixed that now by replacing those characters.

Before someone suggests to put these files under Video, it's not the
same. Some stuff I want to watch once and want to let it autoexpire like
all the other recordings. I wish MythTV had this functionality built-in.
