[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1267539, member: 141969"] I still beg to differ. :eek: WMC had "keyword scheduling". Many users never found it, because they confused it with "keyword searching", which WMC also supported. "Keyword searching" would search the EPG for programmes satisfying the specified search criteria, but [i]not[/i] schedule to record any of the programmes found (you had to do that manually). With "keyword scheduling", you could (for example) specify [i]Record all programmes that have "Big Bang Theory" in the title[/i]. This would then schedule to record programmes entitled "The Big Bang Theory" [i]and[/i] programmes entitled "New: The Big Bang Theory". (I might want to do this if I were a new convert to the "The Big Bang Theory" and wanted to record all episodes.) WMC would record all episodes without recording duplicates (by virtue of using the episode ids in the EPG to exclude duplicates). One facility that WMC lacked was wild-card matching. :( I am hoping that one of the MP2 developers will step up to the challenge and add support for using the series ids and episode ids that are present in some internet EPGs, and also present in some broadcast EPGs (such as the UK broadcast EPG). If an MP2 developer adds this to "TV Server" for MP2, it ought to become available for us MP1 users too. :D -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
