Created attachment 59621 [details] EPG Fehler Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2) OS: Linux Some entries appear more than once. Reproducible: Sometimes using Kaffeine 1.2.2
me too. kaffeine 1.2.2, kde 4.7.4
me too the start time of the double entries are different. eg: Start;Duration;Title 14.04.2012 20:14; 00:50;Lie to me 14.04.2012 20:15; 00;50;Lie to me both entries explain the same.
This bug is too old, for a version < 1.3. Closing it, as the latest version is 2.0.1, and lots of things changed since version 1.2.x, including the usage of VLC as video display backend, support for DVB-T2 and ISDB-T via libVLC, etc. You may check on the upstream version and see if the bug was solved. The README file contains instructions about how to compile it. You can find it at our git repository: https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kaffeine.git If you find similar issues with version 2.0.1, please re-open.
Still the same problem with kaffeine 2.0.3

What I suspect is that this event has his time schedule shifted. So, Kaffeine got the event's first timestamp. Some time after, the new timestamp event arrived. As there's no field that uniquely identifies the event, a new entry was added with the second timestamp. It is not too easy to fix this. One way would be to check if a new event would conflict with another event on the same channel, but the hardest part would be to test if the logic is working, because we either need to be able to produce a test MPEG-TS or have a record of a TS where such change happened.
There are also double entries with same times but different descriptions, as you can see on the screenshots. TVs can handle it somehow.

Created attachment 99656 [details] Don't accept duplicated EPG events Please test the attached patch. It adds a logic that should avoid adding two conflicted events on the same channel. Try to run it on debug mode and see if it will fix the issue. PS.: this patch is a little bit lazy when comparing two channels... it is just using "==" instead of verifying each fields. Maybe such logic may require changes and compare field by field (e. g. compare the chanel name, network ID and/or channel number). The patch is against the latest Kaffeine version on git.
I changed several things at the EPG logic, and included the above patch, that should be auto-cleaning the EPG table at the git version. Your issue should have fixed. If not, please re-open with additional data. In such case, please use the --debug option, to gather the EIT update info.
