Strange Series Link Channel Mix Up
IanP
11-01-2012
Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Side is usually on Channel 5 but when it's not it's on 5*. So I set series links for shows on both channels but setting the series link for 5* causes the 5+1 shows to be recorded. So I've ended up with two recordings one from Channel 5 and the other from 5+1 for the last two nights, and I wonderif the 5* shows will be recorded at all.

Usually caused by the broadcaster giving the same series crid to all the recordings and a different prog crid to the +1 repeats so the box thinks that the repeat is a different episode. Checking the epg should show you what's going to be recorded.
