Peter, not listed means the single/override rule (it only applies to
them) didn't match anything in the guide data.  It was originally
added for cases where the network changes its programming after the
rule is created, but before the scheduled time.  Previously, the issue
would have been silently ignored with the user not knowing why
something didn't record.

Anyway, as John says, the same issue can arise when filters are used,
either explicitly or implicitly when iherited from a template.  For
example, if you try to record something on a standard definition only
channel and turn on the high definition filter, it won't match
anything.  Double check your filters and if you think there's still a
problem, let me know and I can look at it tomorrow.
