[QUOTE="alpax, post: 132476, member: 24528"] I believe the series recording can be partially fixed by a proper implementation of the timed recording - MP should not just blindly record at the specified time, but should check the EPG first. I'm not sure about other countries, but I noticed that here in Canada we usually don't have repeats aired at the same time as the original episodes. For example, a regular episode is aired on a specific channel at 8pm on Sundays. If there are repeats, they show on another channel and/or another day/time. So if I select "Record Season (this weekly timeslot, this channel)" in GBPVR, it will record the show only at that time on that day and that channel, and only if it is on. If there is no episode this week, GBPVR gets this info from EPG and does not record anything. Of course it does not record repeats either, as they are just not in that timeslot/channel. This works fine for most of the shows I record. [/QUOTE]
