I've confirmed that the DB has ALL rules set as record.autoexpire = 0, and ALL programs have recorded.autoexpire = 0. In addition, the recording rule the shows are still (wrongly) being expired and recording other newer ones has record.maxepisodes = 30 and record.maxnewest = 0. With the above settings, I still get log messages like: ""Expiring ""Dead Men's Secrets"" from Thu Mar 8 10:00:00 2007, 477 MBytes, too many episodes (only want 30)."" and the backend is continuing to schedule and record new programs for this rule even though it has obviously reached the limit of 30 shows. Happy to provide any additional info that may be useful.",defect,closed,minor,unknown,mythtv,0.20,medium,fixed,expire autoexpire maxnewest limit,,0
