It's stored in your MythWeb session.  Your MythWeb session is maintained 
by a persistent (non-session) cookie on your browser. However, if you're 
accessing an authenticated MythWeb, your MythWeb session is maintained 
by your logged-in username.  Therefore, just ensure you've configured 
MythWeb to require authentication (something which, IMHO, should always 
be done, anyway) and that said authentication is working properly, and 
your session configuration (including number of programs to display on 
the Recorded Programs page) will be maintained, even if you browse in 
private mode (I'm assuming you'd only do that on someone else's 
computer, since I don't think you have to worry about your wife noticing 
that you've browsed the MythWeb site... ;) or across multiple devices.
