Are you sure you ticked the correct box? It's the one to the *right*
of the "no repeated translations:".  I just tested it with a nonsense
line: 日本語は日本語は日本語は

Without that option ticked I got:
    * 日本語 【にほんご】 (n) Japanese language; (P); EP
    * 日本語 【にほんご】 (n) Japanese language; (P); EP
    * 日本語 【にほんご】 (n) Japanese language; (P); EP

as expected. With that box ticked I just get:
    * 日本語 【にほんご】 (n) Japanese language; (P); EP

Also in the displayed text, the 2nd and 3rd occurrences of 日本語
are brown to show that they are a repeat and hence no translation is 
displayed.

Not here. If you sent me the text you used I could test it.

Before and after shots, showing which options are selected would help.
