So every night I print out the expiry list with mythbackend
--printexpire just so that I am keeping an eye on what we've not
watched yet that could be getting expired. Luckily the expiry process
has been working away on a long list of deleted programs.
I've discovered though that while for the most part expiry is expiring
the deleted list on a more or less FIFO basis, it has deviated from
that.
For example, given this expiry list one day:
"Johnny Test":"Lawn Gone Johnny; Johnny 613 MB 2012-10-15T06:30:00 [ 0]
"The Good Wife":"Waiting for the Knock" 986 MB 2012-10-28T22:00:00 [ -1]
"Saturday Night Live" 1335 MB 2012-10-30T02:00:00 [ 0]
"The Big Bang Theory":"The Re-Entry Min 365 MB 2012-10-18T20:00:00 [ 0]
"Saturday Night Live" 1228 MB 2012-10-31T23:00:00 [ 0]
"Modern Family":"Yard Sale" 428 MB 2012-10-31T21:00:00 [ 0]
[ 69 lines deleted ]
"Parks and Recreation":"Leslie vs. Apri 432 MB 2012-11-15T20:30:00 [ -1]
"Criminal Minds" 686 MB 2012-11-23T02:07:00 [ 0]
"Survivor: Philippines":"Whiners Are We 1074 MB 2012-11-21T20:00:00 [ 0]
Marketplace:"Pump Fiction" 867 MB 2012-11-02T20:00:00 [ 0]
"Saturday Night Live" 1256 MB 2012-11-20T15:00:00 [ 0]
"Saturday Night Live" 1124 MB 2012-11-20T03:00:00 [ 0]
"Ask This Old House":"Planting Palm Tre 677 MB 2012-11-17T11:00:00 [ 0]
The following day the list was:
"The Big Bang Theory":"The Re-Entry Min 365 MB 2012-10-18T20:00:00 [ 0]
"Saturday Night Live" 1228 MB 2012-10-31T23:00:00 [ 0]
"Modern Family":"Yard Sale" 428 MB 2012-10-31T21:00:00 [ 0]
[ 69 lines deleted ]
"Parks and Recreation":"Leslie vs. Apri 432 MB 2012-11-15T20:30:00 [ -1]
Marketplace:"Pump Fiction" 867 MB 2012-11-02T20:00:00 [ 0]
"Saturday Night Live" 1256 MB 2012-11-20T15:00:00 [ 0]
"Saturday Night Live" 1124 MB 2012-11-20T03:00:00 [ 0]
"Ask This Old House":"Planting Palm Tre 677 MB 2012-11-17T11:00:00 [ 0]
To save you a bit of work:
* the same 69 lines were deleted in both lists
* the second list is missing the first three items in the first list
* the second list is also missing:
"Criminal Minds" 686 MB 2012-11-23T02:07:00 [ 0]
"Survivor: Philippines":"Whiners Are We 1074 MB 2012-11-21T20:00:00 [ 0]
So, the first three items missing on the second list is expected. They
were the top three items to be expired from the deleted list. It's the
"Criminal Minds" and "Survivor: Philippines: Whiners Are We" that I can't
see any reason should have been expired so soon. The Survivor episode
spent just one day in the Deleted group before it was expired before
some almost 80 programs that were ahead of it on the list.
Why was it expired so quickly?
