Tried all the different "Duplicate Check Methods" and no change.  I thought
since it had the same "program id" that they would be recognized by myth as
a duplicate show, but that is not how it is working.  Also, the subtitle
and description are exactly the same in the guide data?

At any rate, I fixed it by changing to record only one show per day, but it
would be better to get it to work right.
