It feels like this happens too often. If you update to 5.9.4.9 or 5.9.4.10, you will have to wait for the clip database to fully rebuild. On my system with just 5 TB of storage for motion-triggered clips, this takes HOURS, during which nothing can be recorded. This database is such a joke.
 
This also happened to me after updates 5.9.4.8 and 5.9.4.9. My full rebuilds take only about a half-hour, but annoying nonetheless.

Immediately before updating to 5.9.4.10 today, I performed a database Compact/Reindex. This time I avoided a third full database rebuild in as many days. Maybe related, maybe just a coincidence.
