Actually what you're seeing is the title being repeated. MythTV does this when it doesn't have a subtitle (blast Cartoon Network!

), the episode ID is in the DB as programid and you can copy that across to the subtitle if you want with a simple mysql update command. As you can see below the last two-three digits are where the unique part is:
Code:
root@black2:/etc/X11# mysql mythconverg -e "select programid, subtitle from recorded where title = 'Bleach' order by programid"
+----------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+
| programid | subtitle |

The update statement would look like something like this:
Code:
mysql -u root mythconverg <<EOF
update recorded set subtitle = programid
where title = 'Bleach'
and ( subtitle is null or subtitle = '' );
commit;
EOF
Of course ideally you could chop off the last two characters of the programid and paste that up against something like "Episode ", but that's just getting fancy.
