OK. So that was just stupid on my part. I guess I had read
that post some time ago but had forgotten about it. Well, I
recorded a show as a test and used Mythburn again.</blockquote><div><br>
...without reinstalling mythburn and specifying a proper temp dir?!?
After getting your question answered at least twice on the email list? <br>
<br>
Huh?<br>

it didn't appear to have done anything.</blockquote><div><br>
I'm sure "it" did "something". Whether "it" is mythtv or mythtvburin,
I'm also sure that there is a logfile of exactly what was done. Have
you looked at the logfile?<br>

See above.<br>

Mythburn deletes everything in the working folder everytime it
runs?</blockquote><div><br>

Having a program that uses gigs of temp space *not* clean up it's temp dir after a run would seem stupid to me...<br>

second problem is that Mythweb still lists all of my former (now
deleted) programs under "Recorded Programs" even though they don't seem
to exist anywhere. They even show the thumbnail. How do I
get rid of them? </blockquote><div><br>
Well, you can delete any image files in /video since the recordings are gone.<br>
<br>
You're going to have to delete the recordings' info from MySQL. I find
phpMyAdmin to be a very helpful tool for working with MySQL when sql
syntax doesn't isn't second nature. Install phpMyAdmin and you should
be able to track down and delete those database entries relatively
easily<br>

... before you reinstall it and specify a valid temp dir and clean the orphaned records out of your database. ;)<br>
