Which brings me to a point you may not be aware of hads. I use
tv_grab_nz-py and I have tv3 and tv3+1. The data in tv3+1 is different
to tv3. For example Grand Designs on TV3 correctly has the subtitle
and description fields. However in the tv3+1 data the subtitle is
shoved into the description field. This means that duplicate matching
doesn't work and i get two of every episode.

This is so for some other shows at the moment, but I amnot in front of
the machine and can't be any more particular.

Actually with multirec I could probably do without +1 but it did prove
very handy when I bumped the power plug on the backend during
Outrageous Fortune. It re-recorded on +1 without any intervention from
me (beyond plugging the backend back in and turning it on).

Cheers, N
