If the concern is of losing the settings from a fresh install, maybe they should simply add a file with each recording containing all the informations about it (description, delete or not, etc.)... Would also solve their issues with the definition of "never watched" shows that keeps getting updated untill you rewatch the show again after a fresh install or if you moved the files from outside the web admin and such...
