[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1141369, member: 141969"] The following recent thread is worth reading, particularly the post from Hurley: [URL]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/recording-epg-issue.131072/[/URL] MP does not currently support series recording in the manner of WMC; MP instead supports various flavours of repeated recording (see above). The series recording offered by WMC and commercial DVRs (e.g. my Humax DVR) use unseen series ids and programme ids contained within the EPG, but these ids are not currently utilised by MP. Consequently, MP cannot tell that programme Y is actually identical to programme X, and hence MP cannot record Y if the recording of X fails. In the UK, lack of true series recording is a significant limitation of MP compared to WMC, but it is rare for any product ever to be perfect -- you have to weigh up the advantages and disadvantages of competing products, and decide for yourself which product is the best match for your requirements. The "TvWishList" plugin is the one usually recommended to give you enhanced recording capabilities. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
