Sage is recording random shows!

Every day it seems to be a new set of shows that Sage is recording. I'm using SageMC now but it was still doing it in regular Sage.

And I have intelligent recordings disabled in setup and I have no keyword searches, it is just a few specific shows set up to record.

Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?

Thanks.

Are you watching Live TV w/o stopping it when you are done? (Watching a recording while it is recording is considered to be live TV.) Are the menus set to always play video as the background or in a window? Or are they set to play video if it is active & you aren't stopping playback? If so, live TV will just continue when you leave the playback menu.

Andy, sorry but I was away. I'm still having the problem.

I have watched live tv without stopping it. I'm using SageMC and it plays live tv or whatever you are watching in the corner while browsing the menus.

So you are saying that after I'm done watching live tv I need to stop it somehow or Sage will later record shows from that channel without asking?

Yes, if you leave Live TV playing in the corner of a menu, then Sage is recording it (in case you want to pause or rewind). Those recordings will be automatically deleted later, but if you don't want them created in the first place, then don't play Live TV in menus.
