Episodes with same date

I just started to write a scanner (using the TV Section type) to go through my iTunes podcast directory since the iTunes plugin is not working for me due to a bug with old episodes not being removed form the xml file. Anyway, most information I can retrieve from the m4v metadata. Unfortunately almost nobody is using episode numbers so I have to go by date. Also very few are using the purchasedate tag (which by the way is spelled wrong in the atom.py file) so to differentiate them the only option I find is to use the file creation date. This would normally be fine but if one download two episodes of the same show at the same time, they get the same date and there will be a problem. Plex only shows one episode, regardless of different episode names, from the same date (episode number set to None). Would it be possible to allow multiple episodes with the same date?
