Can someone confirm this issue on their client(s)?

I can't confirm your issue, but I've noticed a similar problem (using Maya, perhaps I should add). Sometimes it seems that when you press 'rec' on a show, in the list of airings (on the right) the first one rather than the one I chose in the EPG is highlighted. If the first airing is already scheduled for recording just pressing rec again leads to it being de-scheduled rather than the intended show being scheduled...

Yeah, this sounds related.

AW: MediaPortal does not allow recording of different shows with the same title

I can confirm this issue, too.

It is very difficult to record FIFA World Cup games these days, because they all have the same title in EPG. I'm using MCE Web-EPG data. In these data, nearly EVERY periodic episode or tv-show has the same title. This makes it nearly impossible to record other things than movies (with unique EPG titles).


I noticed this problem since RC3.


Hope you guys can fix it and release a new RC soon. For me, this is a very serious problem.
