Thanks, that was it.

S = Single record
F = Find and record one, or, Find and record Weekly, or, Find and record 
Daily
W = Record weekly
C = Channel record
T = Record at this time, any day
A = Record all

One slight confusion though; the descriptions refer to the "title" but 
exclude episode.  In this example, what is the title?

Stargate Universe: Resurgence

"Stargate Universe" or "Stargate Universe Resurgence"

I assume it would be "Stargate Universe"; then the duplicate rules would 
prevent the same episode from being re-recorded, based on episode name 
"Resurgence" (or equivalent index or something).
