Comment(by stuartm):
Unfortunately this is due to the implementation of Recording Groups being
fundamentally flawed. Recording groups cease to exist when they contain no
recordings because they are not independent of the recordings. There is no
table to store recording groups, they exist only in the recordings table.
This also has the unfortunate effect of storing recgroups as a string
rather than an ID, you can't rename groups and handling group names in
screens requires some ugly string comparisons with special cases for
Default translation.
This won't change until someone takes the time to re-write recgroup
support properly. e.g. storing the groups in a table, referenced by unique
id internally with a user defined display name and password.
