I think I ought to comment that this thread does imply that using 
MythArchive native mode to transfer recordings between *any* independent 
MythTV installations will probably result in historical data about 
unrelated recordings being referenced by the same 'recordedid.'

This doesn't only apply to transfers between different releases of MythTV.

For some time I have wondered why 'previously recorded' sometimes offers 
me strange results.  My occasional use of MythArchive in this way might 
have something to do with it.
