Please can somebody tell me how to record a series on the Foxsat HDR?

The instruction manual is not that comprehensive. Apart from that, great machine.

Thanks

Goto any programme in the epg that has a series link icon top right. Press OK (not red) you will be given the option to record the series or just the 1 programme

I tried to set series link for Working lunch but it failed to record but still showed the next day`s episode in the schedule to record.
I then decided to try setting a weekday schedule for 12.30pm and a weekly one for Weds at 13.30 with the same result. that must confuse the humax.
good job I backed up with my freeview Pace twin which worked ok but of course it does not offer series link and has to be set weekdays and weekly.
I do not know if setting a weekly repeat for each episode will work but that uses up 5 schedules and I`m not sure how many the humax allows. I will now give it a last chance.
wonder if it has anything to do with my s/w being 1.00.01.

Working Lunch may not have series crid's. In anycase you only need one reservation, just use every weekday as the repeat

Yes it does graham.. Charlos idea for multiple reservations overcomes the problem of the programme having different time slots during the week

note to charlo there should be no problem with the number of reservations you've scheduled
