You clipped off the part where I said this. :)  That "Max Episodes"
would become "Max Deletable Episodes".  I don't see a reason to
disassociate the recording from it's scheduled recording (what if I
want to change the schedule that this episode was recorded from).
If the maxepisodes and autoexpire code ignore DEL_PROTECTED and
DEL_MANUAL recordings then you don't need to clear the recordid.

And you wouldn't have to with what I described. :)  I can see how
having to tweak it manually is kludgey and wouldn't want it changed
the scenes.
