Comment:

 I'm not sure that I agree with the assessment of this patch. It claims to
 fix deleted recordings not going to the deleted recording group "where the
 master backend is also the recording host".

 I not sure that's actually broken, but the exact circumstances of the
 'bug' aren't described. I don't have any problems with recordings where
 the backend is the recording host.

 The proposed fix forces expiring recordings to go to the Deleted group
 instead which is not what it's described as doing. I don't see the
 advantage in that, since the recorder expires files to create space,
 moving them to the deleted group would only delay the inevitable for a
 moment before they would be force deleted to create the necessary room.

 There may be an issue with 'max episode' deletions not going to the
 deleted group, but this patch wouldn't be the right way to fix that.
