I considered it, but I'm not using any separate tables or anything to track
it.  I think it might be a good idea to look at this a step further back
and see if there are any other things that might benefit from something like
this before diving into merging them.  We could potentially have other
things that automatically happen after a recording finishes like conversion
to SVCD/DVD format for burning to CD, etc..  Would be nice if we could have
an easily extendable solution to handle these kinds of "jobs".  Could come
up with a common status screen that would list shows being transcoded,
commercial flagged, etc..
