yes in 0.22 and I believe in 0.21 as well. You have an option to record 
only "new" or as I prefer, "exclude re-runs".

I typically do this through mythweb under the "recording schedules", 
choose the rule, and look for an option called "filter". In the mythtv 
frontend you can do this under the "schedule options" either in manage 
recording rules or when you set up the recording. In mythfrontend I 
believe it is called "Exclude old episodes".
