Comment(by sphery <mtdean at thirdcontact.com>):

 The additional "parts" of the show (really, additional shows) are actually
 in MythTV.  They--unlike the up-to-30-minute "program" you told it to
 record--are in the LiveTV recording group.  Change your filter to include
 LiveTV and you'll see them.

 The only reason the first part of the recording is not LiveTV is because
 you explicitly moved it from the LiveTV recording group by pushing R while
 watching LiveTV.

 Again, you're doing the whole recording-from-"other"-sources thing wrong.
 Use Manual Recordings as described in the linked posts above (or, better,
 use some other application that's designed for that kind of thing).

 And, in the future, starting with a question to mythtv-users list would be
 a great way to find out how things are supposed to work and how best to do
 what you're trying to do--or, even if some behavior you're seeing is
 actually a bug.
