AFAIK yes. I don't have any official documentation though... so I don't know
what the criteria for sending delete messages by TVTV are.

Not that I find the delete feature crucial - it might be, if you're far away
from yiur VDR, and your disk is alost full, and you mark recordings by
mistake in TVTV and you can't delete them ;.) I think the time zone handling
and channel mapping are more important...
