I tried to run a search on this topic, but came up empty. I know Marxian improved this problem with version 1.4.0, so I did some exploration.

Once I got the duplicate entries, I cleared the Cutetube videos from my event feed using the long press menu. Next, I opened Cutetube, went to both my YouTube and then Daily Motion subscription vids, and rebooted my device with Cutetube still open. After start-up, I reopened Cutetube, went back to both my YouTube and Daily Motion subscription vids, and the correct entries appeared on the event feed. I then closed Cutetube. Even with Cutetube closed, the YouTube entries on my event feed began to duplicate, then triple, and then sometimes even quadruple, until there were four identical entries from Cutetube. I wasn't using Cutetube (the app was closed), but the duplicates kept coming spontaneously.

Is there a terminal command or other approach to fix this? Does anyone else have this issue?
The method used to retrieve videos for the event feed has been overhauled for version 1.5.0. It's been in testing for the last few weeks, and there are no more duplicate entries.

The event feed is updated by a separate process, so closing the application does not stop the feed updates. To do this, you need to disable the event feed updates from the Harmattan settings application.
