</div></div>There's a long-standing bug where if you have multiple channels that air<br>
the same content at the same time, but have different callsigns (i.e.<br>
HGTV and HGTVD), MythTV will record the episode multiple times. Note<br>
that you should only change the callsigns to be equivalent if the<br>
content shown on the channels is "substantially identical" (which, IMHO,<br>
means completely identical). So, changing both to HGTV or HGTVD would<br>
work around the bug.<br></blockquote><div><br>Good idea. I forgot about that.<br><br>/Brian/<br><br></div></div>
