http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/programs/mythbackend/autoexpire.cpp
at line ~225 seems to have a hard-coded starting frequency of 15 and
doesn't use the AutoExpireFrequency setting.  The actual init method
at line 82 also uses a hard-coded frequency of 15 rather than using
the setting too.

At least that is my understanding, though I don't know myths codebase
at all or C++ very well for that matter.

This is the same in both 0.21-fixes, which I am running and trunk.  Is
this worth raising a ticket over, or not, since I am not very
confident about writing a patch?

At least now I understand it all a little better.  Thanks for all your
help, hopefully, I will have less hassles with file systems filling
up.

Cheers,
