On my wishlist is an option to create a manual recording with advanced rules and have it marked as disabled upon setting.
I'm not sure if there is an option that can be included in the advanced rules to write it in there or not but a disabled option would be nice if there isn't a way to include it in the advanced rule.
My reasoning is this. I tried to create an advanced rule and messed it up royally and what it did was add every show that was flagged as new to my pending recordings. (Every news program, etc is flagged new. Thousands of them suckers.)
Please stop laughing now.
It was easy to remove those shows except the Conflicts ones had to be removed manually.
If I could have made the rule and had it disabled so I could test it with "find more" it would have saved a lot of headaches.
I learned a lesson though. Before I try to create an advanced rule recording I am going to back everything up so if I end up with several thousand unwanted pending recordings in the next 14 days again I can just revert.
