recording a series

[adm]

I do it another way when on that channel i press the RED button which gives me 7 day epg on that channel and select what i need to record , blue button then green green button to set my AutoTimer. I go on down to that list to see if its on another time/day outside my parameters , if so add another AutoTimer.

I need to remember to remove Autotimers after they are done on a series as no longer needed.

With a single autotimer you can have one, two , three .... multiple TV channels of your choice to search. You can select all days of the week to search or you could restrict it to, say only Mondays and Wednesdays.

I tend not to restrict the time of day so the autotimer will search through all 24hrs per day. In nearly a decade of using OpenVix the number of recording that have been missed can be counted on one hand.

The only time I've set more than one Autotimer for a program was for Dr Who. The BBC decided to alternate the title between "Dr Who" and "Doctor Who". "Dr Who" does not equal "Doctor Who" when searching the EPG. Having a partial match on just "Who" is too general as it would, for instance, also pick up "Who do you think you are?", "Who wants to be a millionaire"? etc. etc.
