You can have multiple channels with the same name, i.e.:
Das 
Erste;ARD:11837:hC34M2O0S0:S19.2E:27500:101=2:102=deu,103=2ch;106=dd:104:0:28106:1:1101:0
Das Erste;ARD:10723:hC34M2O0S0:S13.0E:29900:0=2:0:0:0:28106:1:1101:0

If you want to have a unique id for a channel, that would be that 
channel ID, not its name, man 5 vdr states:
A particular channel can be uniquely identified by its channel ID, 
which  is  a  string  that looks like this:
        S19.2E-1-1089-12003-0

In this particular case however using the channel number serves the only 
purpose to prevent multiple recordings writing into the same directory 
and for this purpose using the sole channel number is sufficient.

Just follow the other posts in this thread, the exact same discussion is 
already going on with a comment from Klaus regarding the current behaviour.
