Ok... I thought this issue was solved, but now something weird happened.  The
schedule is right, but it's still recording multiple showings.

On the details screen it shows "Mon, 21:00 or later" with a findid of 
Jul 18. It then proceeded to record the 9pm showing tonight.  Then it 
started to record
the midnight showing a half hour ago, but until it started recording it 
had the
12am showing marked as "will record earlier showing".  The Wed, 3:30am airing
is also marked as "will record earlier showing".  In case it helps, here's the
row from the record table for the program.

mysql> select * from record where title='WWE RAW';

I'll keep an eye out to see if it proceeds to record the Wed, 3:30am 
airing even
though the scheduler says it won't.  I'm running KnoppMyth R5A15 
(MythTV 0.18). The 9pm airing was recorded on tuner 2 (the higher 
priority tuner), chanid 2030.
But both chanid 2030 and 1407 are the same channel (TSN).  Tuner 1 is my
digital box and tuner two is analog.  Not that it should make a 
difference, but
perhaps it's the cause of this bug?  Does FindWeekly ignore the 9pm recording
since it was moved to tuner 2?  I suspect it's not suppose to since it 
did mark
the 12am and Wed airings as "will record earlier" even though it did, for some
reason, start recording the midnight showing.

Help appreciated,

Derek
