[QUOTE="elliottmc, post: 870543, member: 14268"] I understand what you mean about MovPic only scanning the movie database, but I feel that your reasoning is flawed. Just because TV is using the Movie naming rules doesn't actually mean that this is a movie in the traditional sense. It could be a program that is just on once. Maybe you only normally use this type of schedule for movies, but clearly this isn't the case because you are seeing the issue. The simple solution is to set an 'every time on this channel' and then to cancel it once the program you wanted has been recorded. Personally, I think it would be very unfriendly to set a recording and then ask you what naming rules you want. Equally, it would be unfriendly to add even more recording types for a rare usage (so far you are the first person to suggest this, although I accept that three people have agreed with you). My own view is that if we add this, it will make it more complicated for many users. Since these are one-off recordings anyway, why not just rename the file after it is recorded? I do this all the time for things I want to hang on to. [/QUOTE]
