[QUOTE="TritonT, post: 132170, member: 26020"] The whole Series Record thing is very easy to do if MediaPortal stored and used the <episode-num system="xmltv_ns"> field contained within a standard xmltv file. This field contains the episode number, part number and sometimes series number. Now when the EPG updates, MediaPortal checks for episodes it is missing and sets the recordings. It could even use logic, choosing to record repeat airings of shows to avoid conflicts with manually set recordings! At the minute I would settle for the TV Guide just showing me the episode number if it was available in the xmltv. BUT, none of this works for people using dvbEPG or WebEPG, or even those who use xmltv that either incomplete or non-standard. It is however a good way of doing things if the xmltv is OK. [/QUOTE]
