The rule name and string now start with a capital.  No change yet.

There was another rule just looking for program title of exactly 
"Vikings" with a higher priority set to not record, but why was it not
flagged as not recording or "x"?  

Introducing a third rule got it flagged.  Back to one rule looking
for %Vikings% and nothing from "mythbackend --printsched". How do
you kick the scheduler to update? I'll reboot and come back to this.
