[QUOTE="doveman, post: 823618, member: 67412"] Know what you mean about backlog. Just too easy to record stuff with MP ;) Maybe FTR doesn't need it but I'd rather just use MP. I've tried FTR a couple of times and given up I found it so confusing to setup. I'm sure there's stuff that's not repeated where Freeview Playback would come in handy, to ensure that part of the programme isn't missed if the schedule is changed. Perhaps Series Link isn't necessary to only record first showings, I'm not sure if MP can handle that already. I think my main need is to be able to set MP to record say "Merlin" every Saturday and be sure that it will record the whole programme, regardless of what time it's broadcast, although being able to set it to record only the first showing (unless it's missed for whatever reason, in which case it should record the next available one) of each episode of a series would be cool as well.
