Transcoding temp directory cleaning...

Hi All,

 

I am STILL struggling to figure out why files from my library are getting deleted.  I have started backing up my recorded TV every night, but it is the weirdest thing.

 

I have my 'Live TV' box set up like this:

 

D:\Recorded TV <- WMC puts files in here

D:\Video\TV Shows <- Script runs nightly to sort into here, this is where MB3 library points to.

 

Now - files in recorded TV are fine.  Some of them I don't bother to sort, and they are totally stable.  I have another box with the same setup that I used for my movies, that is fine.

 

But, every once in a while, the ENTIRE D:\Video directory is being wiped of all files, leaving the directories behind.

 

I have of course done multiple virus scans etc.  I have checked everything I can think of that could delete files.  I can't figure it out!

 

Anyway I noticed this morning that I have my 'transcode' directory set to D:\Video.  Is there any chance MB3 is super aggressive about cleaning that path?

Ok @@Luke - for my sanity can you please confirm it is a very, very bad idea?  I would *love* to know this is what has been causing my problem!
