DVR recording too many shows
I have set up recordings for several series. In the Record Options for one of my series I set Record=New and repeat, Channels=HD preferred, Save=Until space is needed, Keep=ONLY 5 EPISODES. This series currently has 60 shows recorded. Many of these shows are duplicates (same title and episode). Why is the DVR recording the same episode that is already recorded? Why is the DVR recording 60 shows when the record options state to KEEP ONLY 5 EPISODES?

You need to set your DVR to record only new episodes.

In the case of some series there are no new episodes and in other cases I have not seen the old episodes and want to record them. In any case, it make no sense for a DVR to record an episode that is already recorded. It also make no sense to have a setting to limit the number of episodes recorded (Keep =ONLY 5 episodes) but records many more (60 in the case I described).

I've been having the same issue in the past few months: even if I choose New episodes only, a bunch of them get recorded which are not labeled New. I also selecting just the channel where the new episodes are aired, and still all the others on various channels get recorded.
This is extremely annoying because it requires that each episode not wanted get deleted manually one at a time.
It seems to be getting worse instead of being fixed. PLEASE FIX!!!!
