@diamaunt You should really try Sonarr, it can do much better than SAB in selecting the right episode and has so many more options :)

Another one is called "Great Unknown S01E02 blabla".
SABnzbd will not detect duplicates in this case: "The Great Unknown" vs. "Great Unknown".
but it will put them in the same directory?

Hmmm, you're right. If they ended up in the same folder in the end then the show names must be identical.
I have set up some subscriptions to Rss feeds on my sabnzbd to see if I can reproduce it.
So far it detected every duplicate.

I'm stupid, I misread the times, they all came in within a few minutes of each other. probably all going into the queue at the same time.

I'm sorry to have wasted your time.

You still highlighted a clear gap in our duplicate detection that we will work on! :)
