[mythtv-users] disable skipping repeat recordings?

[Mark]

I just ran into this tonight.  I have Stargate setup to record every 
monday night, and it skipped an
episode I wanted to see, even though the first one is long gone.  It 
would be really nice (directed to
developer crew) to be able to set a global record all episodes unless 
told otherwise option.  That way
I don't have to keep checking all the time to be sure the stuff I set to 
tape is actually going to tape.
