This has been happening to me sine I upgraded to v30, but it has always
been shows I do not really care about, but it happened to me just a second
ago while I was watching, so it bothered me.

A recording that was there 5 minutes before just got deleted (but not from
the recording list - just the file)..

I know it also says doDeleteInDB, but it did not and the show had not been
watched yet and just turned blue in the theme, so I know it happened.

I see there were a couple hiccups writing according tot he block message,
but the recording was not yellow (damaged) in the recordings screen.  Like
I said - this has happened on more than one occasion, but I am just
checking into it.

Anyone know why it would select this recording and just delete it and not
remove the metadata too?  I mean both are wrong, but
