dvb-t delete old listings

I discovered that my Mythconverg database appears to be increasing in size
continually and has now reached 180MB+. The problem is that the old tv
listings are not being deleted. I run mythtv0.18 with the automatic
over-the-air epg updates. Can anyone enlighten me on how to set things up so
that the database deletes after a few days. I currently have listings going
back over 6 months.


thanks,
Scott.

Are you running "mythfilldatabase" daily? This cleans out the
old program data, updates some lists, removes expired one time
record rules, etc. Even if you are getting listings "over-the-air"
you still need to run mfdb for these maintenance tasks.
