imported by xmltv2vdr, the DVB listing is added to the schedule, so i end up with schedules like the following:
12:00 - 12:30 Stateline [1] 12:03 - 12:30 Stateline [2] 12:30 - 13:00 Australian Story [3] 12:30 - 13:00 Australian Story [4]

If the program times and / or the titles are not exact, there's very little magic VDR can do. I am using xmltv2vdr and it works very well - but the data I'm using (Radio Times for the UK BBC) seems to be the same as that which is eventually transmitted - thus no conflicts. I have NOT seen cases such as the Australian Story in your example: are there trailing spaces? FYI, I'm using 1.3.22.
The alternative is to populate VDR's EPG ONLY using external programs such as xmltv2vdr. This may require a patch to VDR - I haven't needed this function so I'm not sure how to go about it.
