It is "subtitle only" since a while. Before it was "description only".

I switched my xmltv provider about 2 years ago. The old one provided
always only description.

The new one provides always subtitle and most of the time description.

This is the reason I changed the duplicate check method when I switched
the xmltv provider.

Can I implement a workaround until a fix is available?

Thanks!
