    It checks for the wrong .ts file!

    If you have:
    "20210423 0013 - BBC One HD - Greta Thunberg_ A Year to....eit"

    It will look for
    "20210423 0013 - BBC One HD - Greta Thunberg_ A Year to.ts"
    when it should be looking for
    "20210423 0013 - BBC One HD - Greta Thunberg_ A Year to....ts"
    and it will fail to find it and delete the .eit file!
    Long filenames I've got from ages ago end with 3 dots ("...") in movie list, but they are replaced by underscores on the hdd.

    EDIT: Today - Even titles which actually end with "..." are converted to "___" on the hdd, and are show as dots in movie list.

    This rings the faintest bell.

    Ah.

    I guess the ... files I have came from me repairing what happened after this:
