Well if your using the DVB Guide information vs XMLTV the default
duplicate detection checks for episode name + description, so it can
have the same name, but if the description is different this is still
considered a new show and will be recorded, So if the EPG data is
formated differently than whatever your xmltv source was, the database
is gonna see them as different shows

This is nice for some series' where a 2 part episode has the same
name, and only the description differs it from part one to part 2
