Your point is that the title for the movie and series both matched
even though there is a seriesid. The implication is that it should
just match the showings by seriesid instead. David Engel and I both
assumed this would be a good thing too and started to work on it but
after searching for test cases, it turns out this isn't a good idea.

So, "Deal or No Deal?" No deal. More overhead, wouldn't do a better
job and the results could be confusing. We store these and pass them
around but we don't use them to schedule. However, If you really
want to record just the old series or just the new series for
"Battlestar Galactica", this information is available and you can
create a Custom Record to match just the seriesid and not the title.
Besides, now that your machine has recorded the movie "House", you won't
get that one again. And, if you happen to catch it beforehand next time
the movie "King of the Hill" airs (another one that matches an unrelated
movie and TV series), you can simply set it to "Never Record," and that
"episode" won't be recorded.
Of course, you'll have to do the same for the other 3 "King of the Hill"
movies since they'll have different descriptions... (

the lookout for the other 4-or-so movies called "House" which might
match your rule. ( http://imdb.com/find?q=house;s=tt ) ;)
