[16:49:31] dashs (dashs!~dave@dashs.denver.co.us) has joined #mythtv-users
[16:57:28] dashs: Is there any moderately tolerable method to reconstruct 'recorded' table entries — at least up to the minimum demands of the "Watch Recordings" dialog?
[16:59:31] peterbennett: dashs: What is the problem with your recorded table?
[17:01:33] dashs: I caused (thru gross negligence) to have many entries deleted (but not the actual mpg files). The backup drive failed first (hardware).
[17:01:57] dashs: So I know the chanid and start time...
[17:02:29] peterbennett: dashs: How will you find the program name?
[17:03:22] dashs: Well, that is the rub. If I had kept schedule history, it would have been possible.
[17:04:35] peterbennett: There may be a database backup? If you installed from the Ubuntu repo it sets up a cron job that backs up the database weekly.
[17:05:15] dashs: On the failed usb backup drive, unfortunately.
[17:07:16] peterbennett: Well I have a script that can add recordings to the database but you would need to know what they are. Title, subtitle, etc.
[17:07:38] dashs: language?
[17:07:43] peterbennett: Or you could add them as videos
[17:07:57] peterbennett: bash script
[17:08:07] peterbennett: what version of mythtv are you using?
[17:08:33] peterbennett: I have to step away for a while...

[17:49:59] peterbennett: dashs: Do you want the script?
[17:51:20] dashs: Yes.
[17:52:41] peterbennett: It is not approved by MythTV, the developers do not support directly updating the database.
[17:52:55] dashs: Understand.
[17:53:17] peterbennett: This is my repository https://github.com/bennettpeter/mythscripts
[17:53:56] peterbennett: The scripts are updated for MythTV 0.28, so you will have to look at the earliest commit
[17:54:08] dashs: ok
[17:54:11] peterbennett: The first commits there are from 0.27
[17:54:46] peterbennett: install/opt/mythtv/bin/import_recording.sh
[17:55:24] peterbennett: That script can import a recording. You need to specify a number of things on the command line.
[17:56:08] peterbennett: It copies the file into the recording storage group. If yours are already there you may have to modify the script a bit
[17:56:47] peterbennett: The script caters for either updating an existing recording or adding a new one.
[17:57:18] peterbennett: It is setup for my system so you will have to change a few things.
[17:59:45] dashs: Mostly looking for hints about what needs to be done. But not sure about how much transcription I might do.
[18:00:16] peterbennett: Where it includes /etc/opt/mythtv/mythtv.conf you will not have that.
[18:01:02] peterbennett: This script imports one at a time, if you have a lot it will not be pratical.
[18:01:38] peterbennett: I use it for adding an occasional missed episode or updating an episode where the wrong thing was recorded.
[18:02:08] dashs: Not patching a gross blunder such as this one.
[18:03:43] peterbennett: Your biggest problem is knowing what each recording title is.
[18:04:14] dashs: Sad that Schedules Direct does not maintain history.
[18:05:08] peterbennett: How far back do the recordings go?
[18:05:39] dashs: Maybe 2009
[18:06:08] peterbennett: Wow.
[18:07:08] peterbennett: if you look on TheTVDB you can find out original air dates for series episodes, if you know what series it is.
[18:07:12] peterbennett: Also on IMDB
[18:09:14] dashs: But not really that important. I have a script "mythcensus.rx" which is the culprit — removes orphaned files/db entries. But allows itself to run without all storagegroups online. ooops.
[18:10:13] peterbennett: And your backup disk failed at the same time?
[18:11:04] dashs: Yes. Plus a driver failure, plus my script error. Oh, well.
[18:11:39] peterbennett: So you can put all the recordings in the videos storage group and have a surprise each time you watch something.
[18:12:10] dashs: That's an option I guess.
[18:13:29] peterbennett: If you ever ran mythlinks you may still have the links around.
[18:13:31] dashs: Also had to chsnge network provider shortly thereafter.
[18:15:42] dashs: mythlinks?
[18:17:11] peterbennett: actually /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/user_jobs/mythlink.pl
[18:17:40] peterbennett: That mythlink script creates a directory full of links to all your recordings, by name, subtitle, date, etc.
[18:18:15] peterbennett: I run that from time to time, so the directory would still be around if I had a disaster
[18:20:11] Toast (Toast!~quassel@w-247.cust-16293.ip.static.uno.uk.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[18:21:16] dashs: Don't have /use/share/doc/mythtv-backend
[18:22:25] peterbennett: It probably depends where you got your distribution. It is from the contrib directory in git. Ubuntu puts it in that directory
[18:23:04] dashs: Built from source on Debian 7 system.
[18:23:17] peterbennett: Oh ok then it will not be there.
[18:23:58] peterbennett: You would have to copy it yourself, the make does not copy it.
[18:24:14] dashs: OK. Thanks.
