OK...I think I figured out what's causing this:

It looks like the seriesid being returned by the replacement server is
different from the one I was getting from the real DD server.  As a
result, mythweb isn't finding them properly...which may be a related
bug in mythweb.  However, that aside, I'm not even sure which is
correct.  Here's the data where I found this:

--------------
select chanid, seriesid, starttime, subtitle from oldrecorded where
title='madam secretary' and chanid=1021 and recstatus=-3 order by
starttime
--------------

+--------+------------+---------------------+------------------+
| chanid | seriesid   | starttime           | subtitle         |
+--------+------------+---------------------+------------------+
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-09-22 00:30:00 | Pilot            |
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-09-29 00:01:00 | Another Benghazi |
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-10-06 00:30:00 | The Operative    |
+--------+------------+---------------------+------------------+

--------------
select chanid, seriesid, starttime, subtitle from program where
title='madam secretary' and chanid=1021 order by starttime
--------------

+--------+------------+---------------------+-------------------------+
| chanid | seriesid   | starttime           | subtitle                |
+--------+------------+---------------------+-------------------------+
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-09-22 00:30:00 | Pilot                   |
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-09-22 02:30:00 | Pilot                   |
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-09-28 00:00:00 | Pilot                   |
|   1021 | EP01922294 | 2014-09-29 00:01:00 | Another Benghazi        |
|   1021 | SH01922294 | 2014-10-06 00:30:00 | The Operative           |
|   1021 | SH01922294 | 2014-10-13 00:01:00 | Just Another Normal Day |
+--------+------------+---------------------+-------------------------+

As you can see, my recording history in oldrecorded as well as the
programs from the DD server (older ones that were not overwritten by
the replacement server last night) have the seriesid of EP01922294
while the new programs have SH01922294.

Can anyone verify which is actually correct?

Thanks!
Tom
