I read the site you suggested Mike, but the recordings in question do
not present in "watch recordings" so I'm going to revisit the "touch"
solution. I've got quite a mess when I run "/usr/bin/mythbackend". As
shells and command lines invaded my sleep last night I've even
considered wiping 0.25 and starting new with 0.27,(still mulling that
over) for now "touch"

Thanks, Daryl
