[QUOTE="Rob Hexenmeister, post: 1258728, member: 113164"] Well, I have got the red dots on Basic Home working. I was worried that the titles would disappear from the schedules when the clock went past the EPG end time, but apparently not, they stay until the actual ending of the recording including the optional added minutes at the end of each recording as specified in TV Server (I was worried that the red dot would stay and the titles vanish, creating a mismatch). So I have attached a screen shot and my basichome.xml for your amusement and comment. I am still struggling to get my head around file paths. This is probably because I am a Fellow of the Chartered Association of Building Engineers, and not a Fellow of the Chartered Association of Doing Clever Stuff on Computers.
