[mythtv-users] Odd scheduling issue, NCIS: Los Angeles not showing up in MythWeb

I am testing Mythtv 0.25 one of the latest PPA (20120228 I think) on 
Ubuntu 11.10.

When I went to MythWeb to schedule recordings, I choose the program, 
which brings up the Program Detail for that episode, I choose the 
Schedule option radio button for 'Record at any time on Channel XYZ' and 
select "Update Recording Settings", and the result is the program is 
scheduled for a recurring recording.  Works for all recordings except 
NCIS: Los Angeles.  When I choose it and select update recording, it 
simple re-displays the same program and the radio button for "Dont 
record this program" is selected again.

If I go to the 'Upcoming Recordings' section, it does not list NCIS: Los 
Angeles,  however mythbackend --printsched does show it.

Snippet from mythbackend --printsched:

If I go back to the program and choose 'Record only this showing', it is 
scheduled, but again only shows for the one instance.

Looked in the database, and it looks like it's in there, in fact many 
times (every time I hit the button to update the recording)

I tried turning up debugging to see errors when I try to update the 
recording, but nothing useful is logged (and no errors).

Seems like a bug.  Suggestions?
