Hi Jim

Please make sure you are using the latest leanfront version.

There is a bug in leanfront, which I thought I had fixed. It could be 
confusing a RecordedID with a Video ID. If it has a video with the same 
ID it may play that instead of the live tv recording. Each video and 
each recording has an id number on the mythtv database, and the numbers 
could overlap.

I will get a fix done.
