Secret Diary of a Call Girl

Hi all,

Has anyone else tried to record this on series link? The program does not seem to acknowledge there is more than one episode. the only options presented (last night at least) were "Watch" and "Record".

Does anyone have any ideas (other than manually set it to record each week).

Thanks.

On my hdr yesterday all the series links codes for BBC HD, and the ITV variations were missing so it was impossible to add new series recordings for these channels. Just checked and this is still unresolved

Oh, I wonder why that is. Must admit I didn't notice. Iwatched the first episode, not realising it was a double bill. When i did I set the second episode to record as I wanted to watch QT, after which I watched Secret Diary no 2. It was great though I do wonder how much more mileage the writers/producers can get out of this, it is likely to become repetitive.

My HDR correctly recorded both episodes on series link.
and both episodes were flagged with the red R in the guide prior to the start.
I set it up at the weekend, so maybe the PID/CRIDs changed since then? but wouldn't that stop the recordings from happening?

No it would not. I set up my series recordings before the series recording crids were omitted. All have worked fine and the future recordings are all in the epg You just can't add new ones until they put the codes right. Try and add some new ones from ITV 1 or BBC HD and note the missing series icon top right of the epg. They all have programme crids but no series crids

Retried the series link yesterday and it worked.

There has been an issue in the past re "Series Links" on the HD channels.

I I recall it occurs when there has been a retune and only affects the HD "Links". Thus after a retune the advice has been to re-do the series links.

I am sure one of the experts on here will expand or correct if I have got it wrong.

"Secret Diary etc." isn't an HD programme and that problem has been fixed now anyway.

ITV had missed the series data off, but it's there now.
