I have 4 tuners capable of recording this channel and have no trouble recording other shows on that station. but for some reason.. that darn show will not record! even if I try to manually record it.. nothing! I have no trouble VIEWING it (even pause for long periods), but it WILL NOT RECORD!

so..
I logged my attempt at trying to manually record, and it failed.. so here are the logs..

Please have a look and advise on what I should do?

Thanks in advance

Jeff

    Hi Jeff

    Log is pretty clear:

    Presumably you have the "check episode of already recorded..." option ticked.
    What source are you using for your guide data?
    Does SNL have proper episode numbers?

    To add to the comment above...
    Presumably you've also selected "episode name" as the key for preventing duplicate recordings... but it looks like your guide data only has episode numbers for SNL, not proper episode names. Any particular reason you use episode name over number?

    that was a manual recording
    in theory, it should record no matter what.. right??


    as for the name vs number, I guess I didn't realize I could set that
    I will look into that tonight!
