Sage Recordings broken in all recent betas

I can't repro it, but it's happened a lot:

Have you noticed ghosts showing up in Sage Recordings, especially related to multiple recordings? It happens in all kinds of ways, especially if you move the files with Explorer, sometimes ghosts will appear, and sometimes they'll just disappear.

I haven't bothered with a complicated repro case or reporting anything, but Sage Recordings seems to have various off-by-one errors and is generally pretty flaky.

I'm not getting paid by Frey so I'm not going to do the work of a paid tester.

Have not noticed anything like that. What Hauppauge driver version are you using?

pv250_18_22037.exe and
pvrusb2_23_21351.exe, as I have both.

The ghosts are all the Sage side of things, in the Sage Recordings screen -- not ghost files. The files all behave as expected. It's just that, say, I have four recordings of the same show, and a fifth is being recorded, and I don't touch the real files. I go through and mark each of the first four as watched, and them delete them. Since the fifth show is still being recorded, it doesn't show up in Sage Recordings, but the name of the fourth show will still show up as a ghost. Then, since it was already marked as watched, when the fifth show finishes, it will automatically delete itself.

This happened yesterday. Like I said, it has all the classic hallmarks of an off-by-one error, related to multiple recordings of the same show.

Clean install, BTW. I am using partimage to restore clean WinXP partition with no Java, no Sage, no hauppauge drivers. Totally clean, straightfoward install. Has happend in last three betas, although it appears to be different.

Like I said, I can't get a clean repro, so I know this bug report is pretty useless. It's definitely broken though.
