I have the Foxsat-HDR. I used to have Top Gear on series link, but I've recently been instructed to also add The X Factor to series link (don't).

The problem is that because I have a third programme also recording on a Saturday, I don't seem to be able to set The X Factor and Top Gear both on series link. This is annoying because there are 5 episode of Top Gear during the week that would record without any clash, but because I can't add Top Gear on series link it won't record them. Id have to add them all manually.

Is there anything I can do to rectify this and have the ones in the week record and then I'll just deal with the clash on a Saturday?

I have the custom firmware installed if that changes anything.

Thanks!

Cancel the recording that causes the clash on the Saturday if it's repeated schedule a one off to pick it up.

Set a manual repeating recording for top gear on every weekday. .

Can't you simply record the X Factor on ITV +1 instead of ITV?

Ah ha! Good idea - I'd completely forgotten about the manual recording option. Done. Thanks!

No HD, boo!
