I found a work around, and coincidentally as I was about to post it steveF posted it too in the other thread about ungrouping
press green button, select to turn on left menu, add recordings to the categories (you can remove the others if you want), save settings. Now in My Shows select the recording category. If you want your deleted items folder etc select All..
I remembers what you left it on so you don't have to click my shows and then recordings. Phew!..
