7822	Mythbackend cannot locate recordings for preview/delete, but can play them	tjharris@…	sphery	"After upgrading to 0.22-fixes, I found that I could not delete all of my recorded programs (some work fine, others will fail).[[BR]]
  For those programs that cannot be deleted, I also found that they do not show preview images, and I get errors saying the recording cannot be located.   [[BR]]
But,  they can be played by mythfrontend.

I verified that the chanid & start times referenced in the error messages were correct, matched the data in the DB, and the programs actually existed.

I initially had an old directory still listed in my storage groups, but I fixed that and the problem persisted.

Various actions and their related error messages:
