I've recently upgraded to 0.17 (atrpms, previously using cvs from xmas),
and now the duplicate detection on recordings doesn't seem to be
working. Any recordings set to 'record at any time on this channel',
'record at any time on any channel' etc, list all repeats as set to
record.

I've tried fiddling with the various detection options, and cancelling
and recreating the recording, no difference.

I'm using DVB in the UK. I let myth delete all capture cards and
channels, and then let the autodetection run. All seems to work fine,
including the EPG (though I did have to repeat the channel scan because
some channels were missed first time).

Anyone else seeing anything similar? Anything obvious I've missed?
    
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
  
I found the opposite, but being a newbie and still learning my way around I've got a few more important things to fix.  But using xmltv melbourne freetoair guide info I tried to set it up to tape ER - this Thursday there are two episode, but I seem to have multiple entries for them (it appears I still have duplicate channel info in the guide) so I selected record this once, and it skipped the next episode as well, which had a different subtitle but same title.

Does that match with other people's experiences?

While I'm here - thanks to those who've helped me already with this, very happy with it and I can see that it'll completely change my life (o:

cheers
