[mythtv] Autoexpire doesn't remove LiveTV files

Hi,

The new autoexpire method doesn't work for the LiveTV recordings on my
system. I have  tons of tiny files in my recording list marked with an
RIP symbol now.
My autoexpire is turned off globally because I absolutely don't want
myth to remove any recorded files, because everything I record I
really want to keep. Now I turned Autoexpire to on but the small files
still don't disappear.
I've started the backend with -v file, now it shows me that the "Do
not autoexpire" list is growing:

....

Do I have to remove them manually?
Isn't it possible to let Autoexpire=OFF with the new LiveTV?
