Once Timers - Don't They Auto-delete Themselves?

I was going through my Timers list and there are a few "Once" timers for events long gone. For example, there are three timers set as "once", all three set or created on 4/5 and recordings took place on 4/10 and 4/12. Why do they remain? I could have sworn that in the past, they would auto-delete.

Just think about it, they have to disappear on their own, otherwise most people would end up with a lot of useless timers.
 
They're supposed to disappear. Perhaps this is yet another bug with the "new and improved" software? I'll have to see if my Hoppers are deleting them properly.

Yet another reason to keep that 722. (I have one as well.)

Even my 722k has some annoying bugs, but overall it's far more functional than my Hoppers lately. That's one benefit of it being older, they no longer add useless "features" to it which in turn break everything else. Seriously. Everyone said to avoid the 922, well, Hopper is becoming 922 v.2. I am seriously considering dropping Dish and getting cable soon if things don't get better with the Hopper software.

My guess is S431/S342 was received between 4/5 and 4/10. I had some once timers set before the S342 upgrade that did not delete, but timers set after the upgrade delete as expected.

My wild ass guess was it had to do with whatever db changes were involved in increasing the timer limit and some bug was not auto-deleting pre-conversion timers.

Never happen!! :shh
 
I set a once timer and it was deleted afterwards. H2K with S438. I never knew that was supposed to happen.
