Thanks for the ideas, but unfortunately that's not it. In these cases the name, subtitle, and description are all identical. Also I've always been using the DVB guide data (previously with tv_grab_dvb) and this was working before, except for some of the BBC shows where they seem to like to re-write the description every time they show a repeat. Or even better, add '[repeat]' on the end. Nice one, thanks guys! Must write a patch to remove that at some point. Anyhow, seems like I'm the only person here with broken duplicate detection so I'll just have to get in there and debug it. Cheers, Martin.
