After looking at this script, I'm not entirely sure how it's working.  
The chanid/starttime pair in the recorded table is the primary key, and 
thus must be unique.  In your script, when inserting the new recording, 
you replace the old starttime with a new one.  However reading back 
through the code, you split apart the old starttime, and use that to 
create the same exact new time.  I don't understand why the database 
wouldn't refuse the new record every time, and cause the script to die 
at the end.
