I use schedules direct xmltv, which provides season and episode
information that is accurate, so I don't use the metadata grabber as
everything is present in the schedule data.<br>
<br>
When there is a double episode, it shows the season and episode of
the first of the two episodes, plus title and description that
includes both. The biggest problem is that in reruns, the two
individual episodes are recorded again if they show as separate
shows.<br>
<br>
See this link for details of the xmltv grabber.<br>
