[mythtv-users] Scheduling recordings by name or by program id

I have been recording episodes of the Series "Dallas", which I had set
by clicking it in the listing in mythweb and selecting to record any
time any channel.

Now I am surprised to find that a movie called "Dallas" in my upcoming
recordings.

I am under the impression that it should only select episodes based on
the series id or program id, unless you explicitly select "Title Search".

Record table has below settings, including the series id and episode id,
which do not match the movie (which has Program ID: MV000007890000).

Anybody know why it is doing this? I could set a custom recording rule
which specifically uses a search on seriesid but I would think an
automatic recording should be doing that.

type    4
title    Dallas
subtitle    No Good Deed
description    The Ewing family must make some decisions; a large oil
company approaches Christopher; the Ewings fight to protect Southfork
from outsiders.
seriesid    EP01481224
