Comment (by martin at longhome.co.uk):
I presume you are using the RT grabber?
Guessing here, I could be wrong, but the duplicate checking uses the last
4 digits to distinguish episodes within a series. The fact that these all
end in 0000 is probably tricking the scheduler into thinking they are
generic episodes, and hence is recording them all.
I suppose a suitable fix would be to be able to switch off matching using
programid, and only match using the title, subtitle and description - I
don't beleive this is currently possible. My understanding is that if
programid data is present, the duplicate checking method chosen will be
ignored and the programid data will be used irrespectively. I personally
use the EIT data, along with a new duplicate checking method (see ticket
2655).
How about a patch to switch off programid matching for a specific
schedule? I'm guessing it would need a schema upgrade, unless I could work
it using an existing column. I'll have a look into it. Any thoughts?
Potentially a new dup-check method could be created, but then we would
have a conflict as to which is the default. xx_grabber people would go for
the programid method, whereas EIT people would go for subtitle else
description / subtitle & description.
