I agree with you there. If it could also ignore current recordings, that
would be ideal for me. I sometimes end up with a recording that has the
wrong episode information, so what was recorded isn't what was in the
listings. I want to keep the "bad" episode, but I also need to
re-record the missing one. Currently, there's no easy way to do this,
since the "bad" one gets treated as a duplicate of the rebroadcast.
