I have an autorec to record the Agent Carter series on Paramount. It works fine. Today I noticed an upcoming recording for an episode of Wynonna Earp, which immediately follows Agent Carter. The upcoming recording is automatic and alleges that it is required/authorised by the autorec for Agent Carter. I cannot think of any explanation other than a bug. Here's the evidence I've discovered; feel free to ask for more.

# pwd

# grep -r Wynonna *

Extracts from epgdb.v2 (I don't understand why some episodes have two stanzas and others only have one - the TVH web UI list two episodes of Agent Carter(one new, one repeat) and four episodes of Wynonna Earp (three different on two channels, and one repeat)):
