Anyone know what "Single Record - Not Listed" means in the EPG?  I
scheduled some movies to record that were off in the future and I have

Now when my "single record" movies come up they are not getting
recorded.  I go into the EPG or the upcoming recordings and they all
say "Single Record - Not Listed", but it's right there in the EPG.


No, I don't know what "Single Record - Not Listed" means, at least not for sure.

But, Sunday afternoon, I happened to notice something quite similar, a line
in Upcoming Recordings saying, "Not Found" (or maybe "Not Listed").

Definitely "Not Listed"...

ABC-TV changed the name of their 36 Greatest NFL Moments show,

Might you be shown in this?

which I had scheduled days ahead of time, to something else.

I looked in the EPG, saw that the name was much shorter, and then
scheduled a singled-record of the newly-named program.  My guess
is that the program would NOT have been recorded unless I scheduled
the newly-named show,

That's exactly what we're after; to let you know that it changed
so you can try to fix it. Two bottles of Champagne ;-).

 OR punched an override with the remote on the
Upcoming Recordings list.

I don't think an override would work but making a new rule for
the short title is the right thing to do.

So, after all that long-winded blather, do you suppose that the names of
Your Movies were changed from the time you scheduled them ?
Just an idea.  Seems like a mean-spirited thing to do to MythTV folks,
changing the names of programs After they are first listed in the guide.

It's an even meaner thing to do to T... the leading commercial DVR
users. This is a new feature in myth to let MythTV users know that
they are being jerked around (but I don't really think the stations
are being malicious when they make these changes =).

One question might be why it doesn't record it anyway. That might
be good if it is the same show with a slightly different title but
almost every time a different title appears it is a completely
different show. The show you set the single rule for may still be
planned but in a different time slot. In any case, the "Not Listed"
lets you know that something isn't the same anymore and the show
you asked for is not going to record.
