What is with the idea to set title and episode to the info which was
transmitted for the longest time during the recording period. Remember
that the recording starts normally earlier when the info of the previous
transmission is still provided. Another way to handle this is to use the
info which is transmitted half-way between start and endtime. The
Problem with all this is that all the file structure already exists. A
kind of rename functionality would be necessary which also would be
useful in other cases.
