I normally set up my recordings as "this channel", so I do not see
problems like that.  The usual cause is that the EPG has different
programid data, or if there is not a programid, then the subtitle
and/or description data is different.  Use the I command twice on a
programme or recording to see the full data.  If there is a "Programme
ID" shown, then that is what is used to decided to record or not - it
will only record if the programid is different.  Otherwise, it will be
using the subtitle and/or description data to decide, as set in the
recording rule.
