The other day, something weird happened.
I was accessing PMS via the web interface when I noticed on the home page that without my doing many programmes suddenly appeared in the “Continue Watching” space. I can’t remember how many appeared but there were at least 10 programmes. I went through them and marked them as “Unwatched” which removed them from the “Continue Watching”; shortly after that, the same happened again and I marked them “unwatched” again.
I thought this was the end of it, however, today I realised that many episodes of many seasons had disappeared.
I can only assume that PMS somehow continued “watching” my programmes and as I have the “delete watched programmes after a day” option set it then removed them from my library. I lost about 35 individual programmes.
To be on the safe side I have now disabled the function to empty the trash automatically after every scan. That way, if PMS watches and therefore deletes programmes again, I should be able to restore from the trash.
