Series record - Doesn't fill in title in PVR

Added by C E about 12 years ago

Apologies but this one sound a very odd issue which I have to believe is my fault for some reason.

When selecting a series from the EPG, say 'Scrubs', the Record Series button comes up. When clicking on this button I find that an entry has been put in the 'Automatic Recorder' tab without the title being filled in.

At this point a variety of other objects in the EPG from the relevant channel (in this case E4) get populated into the Recorder schedule tab. It isn't everything from E4, just a mixture of future TV shows,but none matching the series 'Scrubs'. (It currently tries to record lots of things called Switched ???)

Is this mean to happen? Have I missed what series record does or have something setup incorrectly?

Thanks,

Chris

Chris,

If you're using Freesat/view data, then a series record doesn't use the title, it uses the season ID (if present, else it would enter a title). Unfortunately I forgot to add this into the UI. Check what's in the .hts/tvheadend/autorec files (find the latest ones etc..) you should probably find some reference to a season code.

But there are some problems with series recording at the moment, and just the new EPG code in general (mainly in relation to freesat/view). So it needs some work.

It's high on my TODO list following some discussion in #hts yesterday, but I still need to find the time to make the updates. If you need stability for now I'd stick with 3.0, but you'll have to accept its shortcomings.

Hi Adam,

I'm more than happy to wait. I just wasn't sure whether this was a known issue or as yet undiscovered.

Apologies and thanks,

Chris
