This is one of my pet MythTV annoyances. I don't think shows should
be marked as recorded until the recording is complete. Sometimes I kill
a recording like the previous poster, but also I had problems for a
while with the back end crashing due to a kernel panic and lost all of
those shows as well.
If you shedule a show and the only one on the schedule has already
started then Myth will grab what it can and consider the job complete.
Likewise, after a reboot it will start recording again (sometimes). I
don't mind this behavior, but would like to see the episode remain on
the ToDo list until a complete version is captured, at which time the
partials could be deleted.
