In Watch Recordings, if you hit MENU (once or twice, as required), then 
Change Group Filter, does it list "Deleted" as an available recording 
group?  If so, select that and you should see the deleted recordings.

Yes "Deleted" is an available recording group. When I select that I see only 1 recording, this is one I deleted after setting the "time to keep deleted recordings" to -1. The other 160 or so deleted recordings do not show there, but they do show in MythWeb.
