[mythtv-users] Disabling recording rules without deleting them?

After a long and blissful period using MythTV, I unfortunately won't
be able to use it as a PVR for the foreseeable future since my TV
provider is switching from (mostly) unencrypted IPTV to a Microsoft
Mediaroom based system. Until I get some other way of feeding TV into
the MythTV, I want to keep the MythTV system from attempting to make
any recordings, since I don't want a whole bunch of failed recordings
to show up in my lists while I watch the shows that are already
recorded. However, I'd like to keep the recording rules around for
future use in case I manage to get another source hooked up.

Is there any way to do this, or should I simply delete the recording
rules and recreate them whenever I have another form of input?
