Show in Recordings list but have actually been deleted.

[GollyJer]

I recently built a new SageTV server while at the same time upgrading from 6.0 to 6.1.

After the upgrade and getting all hardware working I copied over the wiz.bin file from my 6.0 install. All of the programs show up in Recordings but so do some extra shows. For example, there's an American Idol group showing 2 unwatched show but when it's selected there are actually no shows to watch. After thinking about it I may have backed up wiz.bin before deleting these shows.

How can I clear American Idol from the wiz.bin database?

Thanks.

Look at the Recording Detail for those shows & scroll all the way down to see the full path to the recording's file. Does that path still exist on the new server? If not, SageTV can't see that the recordings are not still in that location. If there are just a couple files like this, simply delete the recordings in SageTV. It won't be able to remove an actual file, but it will remove them from its list. If there are lots of files like this, try recreating the path so SageTV can see that those files are no longer in those locations.

Unluckily I used UNC paths for the old recordings directory. Luckily I still had the old server sitting around and could map the old path on the new Sage install. It saw that about 45 shows were not there and deleted the bogus entries. Thanks for the help Andy.
