I have over 2.5 million rows in my RecordedSeek table and when I ran
this query (as suggested in the maillist):<br>
<br>
select count(*) from recordedseek where not exists (select * from
recorded where chanid=recordedseek.chanid and
starttime=recordedseek.starttime); <br>
<br>
it says that I have 33,143 "orphan" records. I tried the
"myth.find_orphans.pl" script but it doesn't fix recordedseek tables,
nor does it work with the 20.2 stable release. How do/should I get rid
of those orphans?<br>
<br>
The reason I went looking for DB problems was because I have been
trying to find the source of persistent errors:<br>
<pre wrap="">2007-10-11 09:00:09.134 MainServer::HandleQueryRecordings()
                        Couldn't find backend for:
                         : ""</pre>
which seem to eventually crash the backend process.<br>
<br>
I also get lots of these:<br>

or these:<br>
