[QUOTE="elliottmc, post: 1035970, member: 14268"] We've explained why this is very difficult because of the variations in the way the EPG data is provided. Sorting this would take a massive effort, and would almost certainly result in some situations where a new episode was not recorded due to bad data. However, it is almost no effort to either cancel episodes of a schedule in advance or to allow them to record and then delete the duplicates. I do this all the time. MP does have a setting to not re-record episodes. It will work as long as episode numbers are provided in the correct EPG fields. We are not responsible for the quality of EPG data provided. For example, where the BBC provides episode number information, it is usually in the text description and never includes the season number. So, we know this is something that would be better if it could be fixed. But nagging us and telling us how important it is for _you_ won't make it happen. [/QUOTE]
