Update: Could be some sort of bug. I'm watching "Strike Back" while it's
still recording and the info OSD shows "(Repeat)" inserted before the
description text. This is wrong because it is a new show. Maybe your
recording rules are not working because myth thinks all shows are repeats?
Maybe change a rule to record at any time on any channel and not check for
repeats and see what happens?

As of this morning it appears to be all OK, with recording rules now working
correctly, however Mythweb's listings are still partially screwed up, so
there is definitely something still wrong somewhere; seems really strange
that Mythweb and Mythfrontend give different results in the guide.
