0 byte HMT files

Hi,

Long time lurker, first time poster needing help please.

Running Raydon 4.1.2 and recently installed Newk at the start of December... over Christmas I've ended up with a bunch of "New" recordings in the flat folder that can't be deleted and don't have thumbnails. If I try to delete from the Humax remote it appears to work, but then the entry comes back into the media list. If I try to play any of the files it simply returns back to the live view.

I've telnetted to the box and can see 0 byte .HMT files that match the name of the supposed recordings but no .TS and no .nts files for these problem recordings. If I delete the problem hmt files from CLI, they keep reappearing. I don't have Mediatomb or Twonky installed and I have uninstalled Newk. Previous to this I thought the HDD was on the way out, so I've run a repair from maintenance mode and it completes without errors and the SMART values look good.

In all other respects the box is working file. Live timeshift, instant recordings, other scheduled recordings all working ok.

Any ideas please?

Thanks,
Stuart
