Hi all,

I'm working on a new version of find-zero-byte.pl that uses the Perl
bindings to delete the failed recording and issue a re-record. This is
for Mythtv version 0.23.1 and will likely need some work for other
versions.

If you are interested, let me know and I can share this with you.
I still need to do some testing to make sure it works well but it
shouldn't be too long.

Regards,
Daniel

Pete,

OK, here it is. I'll also send it directly to you in case google groups rejects attachments.

As far as I know, this should work but since my mthtv BE doesn't see much down time (especially now with all the Christmas specials) so I haven't been able to test it to my heart's content...

Anyway, you'll see, it's not complicated. Oh, I also increased the timeout for checking for zero-byte files. The original script was giving up way too quickly...

Cheers,

Daniel
