I am. If you stopped a recording you couldn't restart it with
a new kSingleRecord as might have been expected. However, this
suggests a possible solution...

Is the recordid still in the proginfo at this point? If so,
maybe if the recordid doesn't match it should go ahead and
record. That might be a problem if there is an rsOverlap tho.

In general, I think a single record for a show in progress
should take precedence over the post-record states for stopped
or deleted.
