No, it's not--at least not in any way that your recording rules allow 
recording.  If it were, it would show in --printsched output on a line 
with source ID 1 (even if it were not going to record from that source), 
but the only Good Morning America showing up is one with source ID 7 
(meaning on the HDPVR's source).  And, more tellingly, every single show 
in your --printsched output is on source ID 7, so it's quite likely you 
have an Input Connections configuration problem making things not work 
properly for your HDHR source and/or channels and/or card and/or input.
