Hi All,
This one has been causing me minor issues lately...
Some of the (DVB EPG) schedules have slightly different names for 'beginning of season' and 'end of season' episodes. For example, if a show was typically called 'XXX', then often the first episode of a season will be called 'XXX - Season Return' or 'XXX - New Series'. Likewise, the last episode in a season might be called 'XXX - Season Finale'.
I have the title 'XXX' stored in the schedules database. Problem is, it misses the recordings where the EPG title contains these extra parts. So the first or last episodes are missed.
Is there a way to set recordings based on the beginning of a title (which would eliminate the problem above), or any other way around this? I have used For the Record in the past, which had an extensive range of criteria including 'Title begins with' or 'Title contains' (or something similar - haven't used it in a while), but cannot find a similar option in MP to solve the above problem.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
