And make sure you check to see if the rule is inactive.  It's sometimes 
easy to accidentally mark a rule as inactive in MythWeb.

Also, checking in mythfrontend's Manage Recordings|Upcoming Recordings 
should show any matching episodes for the new rule, and why they are not 
recording.  (Or, you can post the output of mythbackend --printsched if 
you want help interpreting.)  If the episodes don't appear in those 
lists, then they're likely not matching the rule--probably because 
you've set a filter you don't want?
