Will Sage forget my recorded shows? (from temp HDD removal)
I've had to remove one of two Sage hard drives temporarily while moving to a new case. Will Sage rescan the drives and think, "Hmm, shows are missing, lets delete my info for them", and then when I reconnect the missing hard drive, will it record over the shows? Or will it still 'see' the shows as being there?
Thanks in advance

Sometimes one of my HDs goes offline on it's own, it sucks, and Sage rescans the drive when it's remounted and if it hasn't deleted the show info it will simply relink it. Otherwise, I find them in the imported videos section - stripped of metadata.
I haven't figured out when Sage decides it's time to delete the metadata though. I think it has to do with if it's in the EPG or not when the show comes back online, but I'm not sure.

It has been a long time since I tested something like this... I _think_ it might treat it as if it were a network drive that isn't currently available & keep the shows in the SageTV Recordings list until it can see the drive again. (If the same drive letter is still available, it will probably notice the files are no longer there & remove them from the database.)
I would save wiz.bin in the process. With the most recent version, I believe the worst that would happen is that the recordings end up being treated as imported videos. Edit: this was written before I saw the previous reply. - Andy
