Touch the file into existance then it will let you delete it. In the web interface if you put the cursor over the thumbnail image it will show you a URL containing the name. You can also get it directly from the DB. Once you know the file name (lets pretend it's "1060_20050820010000_20050820013000.nuv" which is my most recent recording) you can do something like this: Code: touch /myth/tv/1060_20050820010000_20050820013000.nuv

You can also get the filename by examining the backend log file after attempting to delete it. (/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log I think, if not you should be able to find it) |

Hi, I have noticed that if you reboot during a recording that sometimes some messy stuff happens. I haven't tried the touch method (next time) but either way a shopping list of what it thinks are bummers would be handy 
Being lazy, I just run as root # sh /usr/local/bin/mythlink.sh That will show all the file names that mythlink can't make pretty so one should know what to touch.. It is a pain to go through webmin to get to mysql database to edit and besides you could mess up something by accident quite easily. Using tjc suggestion and by running the mythlink.sh script should make it fairly easy to put something in place to be able to delete wth the web page. Mike |
