[QUOTE="Wladi, post: 129999, member: 46846"] I found a logical inconsistency: Recording of tv-series only works if there is a TVGuide containing these series. Unfortunately there is no documentation/manual giving a hint to this fact and it cost me several hours of debugging to find this out. Who knows, how many other users got desperate or even frustrated, not figuring why they couldn’t record series (i.e. program periodical recordings). My HTPC, for example, isn’t connected to the internet (and it shouldn’t be) nor is it having a DVBT – thus there is no chance of having current entries in a TV Guide. I propose to introduce a new method to recording, depending on the value of a new checkbox which can be found in General (e.g. called “Synchronize series recording with TVGuide”). If the checkbox is not marked no entry in TVGuide is needed and it will just record a selected channel on a specified time as defined by the user! As I am definitely going to integrate this feature in my version of the MP, I offer to make it available for the community. Being at it, I would also correct the position of the list box “Loglevel”.
