I figured this out, so wanted to share, as it was a bit unintuitive. I wanted to record Little People, Big World, but only regular season episodes (IE: NOT specials). The typical way I do that in other software is to specify that the episode has to be greater than 0. Figured it would be easy in JRiver (which ultimately, it was).
In your recording rule, add a rule, and choose custom from the drop down. Then in the box next to Custom, enter [Episode]=>0
Note the '='. I was trying all types of variations on [Episode]>0 with no luck.
Hope this helps someone...or helps me in 2 years when I can't remember how I did it!
Also, note this will only work if your EPG data has episode information.

Thanks for sharing.
I have not tried myself, but maybe you can also use Compare() function:
Compare([Episode], >, 0)
which outputs 1 if the comparison is true.

I did try that at one point, but not 100% sure if I had the syntax exactly correct. either way though, now that I know how to do it, I'm good. Thanks!

So out of curiosity, I went in and tried this again, and this is what it was processed like the screen shot attached.

when I do it like my OP ([Episode]=>0), this is how it ends up. This one filters out all the specials and previews. The above one doesn't work at all obviously.

Yup, it does look like the expression functions are not handled in the recording rules editor.
