The metadata sources don't have an entry for the double episode that
you recorded.  So there is no "automated" solution.  I suggest
grabbing the metadata for episode one (that will give you the correct
artwork, cast, title, etc ).  Then manually edit the metadata
description & subtitle to reflect that this one file contains both
episode one and two.
