I did not change the filter there, actually I don´t see an option to
show the live recordings. If I can see the live recordings there at
least I could delete them manually there.

But why does MythTV make these live recordings at all? Kaffeine can play
DVB-C without saving any recordings in big files. These live recordings
waste GB of space on my harddrive.
