You need to use the undocumented & unsupported feature of Watched Folders. This
can be achieved in two ways by editing the registry or by creating a symbolic
directory link to the remote Recorded TV folder. The latter needs to be shared
in either method.
For registry editing see the instructions here:-

For using symbolic links method see here:-
