#6 Duplicate Recording and Scheduling Bug

Found a bug with how CDK Scheduler is currently trying
to determine if a show should be scheduled or not based
on the duplicate logic. The issue comes down to this
scenario.

Desperate Housewives runs on ABC from 9:00 - 10:01 on
Sundays.
Band of Brothers runs on the History channel from 10:00
- 11:15 on Sundays and repeates on Mondays at 2:00am

When the scheduler runs through it's scheduling logic
to determine if the second airing of Band of Brothers
should be recorded
or not, it adds the first Band of Brothers because it
hasn't recorded it, and doesn't add the second band of
brothers because it has already been scheduled

Band of Brothers is setup as follows:

<Duplicates>

<Recorded>No</Recorded>

<Scheduled>No</Scheduled>

</Duplicates>

Ideally, what I think should be happening is the
following, during the scheduling process the check for
whether the program has already been scheduled should
happen during the actual scheduling process, not before
the scheduling process. It's a slight change to the
logic, but I think addresses this bug.

    Seems to be fixed and working.
