Recording program name getting truncated for spin off series

[topcat]

Source UK: Freeview EPG
Recording set for NCIS

Programs recorded; NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS: New Orleans
Which is all good, because I do want all three series

However, all there series end up in the same saved folder all with just the NCIS programme name
It is truncating the ':Los Angeles' or ':New Orleans'

It is then very difficult to work out, using the GUI (recordings) which recording is which series

I have noticed it doing this with other programme names as well, but this is a more common example


if it could be sorted to fix this, or I've missed a setting somewhere that would be great.

Set config.xml to the default to recurring match exact and create three rules.

by setting the match exact the system often misses other stuff where broadcasters decide to add extra terms to the program name.

I have also noticed that the NEWA shows the programme name correctly so I would suggest its just a problem with the main gui.

for me recordings named 'wrongly' in the same folder is not an issue

NextPVR can't differentiate the junk. Turn off exact match and make NCIS by itself lower priority.

I did use to have to schedules
"NCIS" and "NCIS: Los Angeles"

But I would end up getting 2 copies of the same show
