 Perhaps should have reopened Ticket #7864. This problem is still present
 in 0.23-fixes branch, a look at playbackbox.cpp it certainly looks like
 the logic is wrong. But the logic in this area could probably do with a
 complete rewrite, a few comments would go amiss either.

 There are probably half a dozen ways to fix this discrepancy in the
 behavior, including the one I have attached, since there are no comments
 its not obvious what the intended behavior is.

 I view the 'LiveTV' recording group as a special case (similar to
 'Deleted'), i.e. It should not be classed as a 'Recording Group' in its
 own right. However the side effect of this is that if you select LiveTV as
 the Group Filter, and do not have 'Show Titles' or 'Show Categories'
 selected in the Group View it will not show any programs. Previously if
 Show LiveTV & Show Recording Groups were selected then all the LiveTV
 programs would be shown... (bit of a garbled ramble).
