Can this be done remotely?

What if you just set three simultaneous recordings? Does it happen then? Do the end times for the three recordings all need to be the same? Does only the final recording on each channel carry on, or does it happen with the others? What is your pre/post record time (and does this work okay)...

Do you mean you set a single recording in each case to cover the time period, or you set separate recordings in the EPG for each individual program? Perhaps you can set the same schedules for tomorrow, then zip and upload your TV database. Maybe we will find that the schedule is set incorrectly?

Well, if you are able to schedule a series recording for something that is on every day at a certain time, and then cause the problem by adding more schedules close in time, that would be useful. How many tuners do you have?

Can you reproduce this more or less every time? If so, it might be worth trying to add some logging to MP to give more information about what is going on. It would be good to know if we are checking whether it is time to stop recording and the check fails, or whether we do not check at all.

@Sebastiii @regeszter - perhaps we can get a Jira and a branch with this? Seems like it will be easy to test and pretty safe.

Please bear in mind that MP is coded by volunteers. Anyone reading this who would like to dig into the code and work it out is welcome to do so and to submit a patch. Best guess - there is a < that should be a <=

I guess you are right about this, but it is pretty trivial. I will add it to the list to look at at some point.

Hi, Whenever you set a series recording and then cancel an episode, an entry is created in the 'canceledschedule' table in the database. This allows MP to check and not record this one. The problem is, these are NEVER removed. With the fix...

One single setting for all related instances might be a cleaner solution.

True, and I would normally be against this. However, I think it is a useful one. Agreed. I'll sort a Jira later. Since this is not a bugfix, I will schedule it for 1.9.100

It has to be pretty easy to add another setting, and check this before displaying the notification, right?

Presumably easy to detect if a slide show is running and not show the notification - also to add an option for this.

So does this mean it will only be over-written once for this release, and then not in the future?
