Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
Using Ubuntu 9.10 and Rhythmbox 0.12.5 it happens every now and then
that two completly different podcast episodes from different feeds get
merged into one. The title and the feed column then show info from one
episode, but the underlying MP3 and time column as well as the
description point to a different episode of a different podcast feed.
One such entry would be (taken from
/home/ingo/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml):

<description>The most distant object ever discovered as well as the events
of National Pathology week feature in this week's show as we take on your
science questions! We investigate whysocks go missing in the wash, whether
light from the sun is a continuous beam and whether numerous vaccines can be
given together in one dose. We also find out how higher heels make for a better
runner and reveal the world's fastest camera. Plus, we find out why we get a
better signal when holding an aerial and show you how to make a helicopter
using card and pencils!</description> <- (2)

The feeds are:
1) http://feeds.feedburner.com/OneMinuteHowTo
2) http://www.thenakedscientists.com/naked_scientists_podcast.xml
There don't seem to be any obvious naming conflicts between the feeds or
the MP3 that could explain the behavior. I don't have a way to reproduce
it, but it has happened to me multiple times with different Podcasts.
