Press OK so the banner displays then press Fav to cycle thru the channels

The problem is that this is two buttons to press instead of one button.

Furthermore, you can only move forward but not backwards. And we have to be quick or else the banner disappear.

I remember the old Astro favourites button was easier to use.

1)What channel did this happen on?
2)I've just series linked CSI on AXN HD and after cross checking with AXN's website the B.yond decoder correctly selected the 5 times in the next week that a new ep is broadcast and has not selected any repeat screenings. Perhaps the synopsis is misleading as it is still generic. We are working to get much more episode specific synopses.

1) Channel 305 TVBC i believe is facing time sync. The start time for shows starts at 22:08-22:53 for The Judge Pao. All subsequent show times are not at 1/2 hour or 1 hour mark. E..g 23:38-00:03, 00:03-00:53, etc

2) I still don't understand how the series linked work. When i select to record CSI series link on 21 July, Wed @ 22:05, how does the PVR book this and subsequent series?

check your setting, read the response from TallJustin
QUOTE(TallJustin @ Jul 21 2010, 11:38 AM)
Your hard drive is full and your PVR is set to "Auto" which will delete the first recorded programmes so to free up space for the latest recorded programmes.

"Lock" the show in the planner section to keep it and change your PVR settings (Home>Settings>Your Settings) to Warning or Manual.

Thanks I'll check on Chairmen Pao


Series links works by putting a unique ID against every episode of a series. If the decoder notices the same ID it knows it is the same episode and it will not record that unless the first attempt at recording failed.
When series links was first released I was not able to get episode specific information from a lot of the channels and the result was the IDs where triggering records of repeats.that lasted 1week, Today if I can't get the specific info from the channel then we will not enable a series link for that show. This is why it is still not available on all series programs yet, where it is available it will record the new episodes only and not record the same episode over and over.

Series link is a set and forget thing on B.yond. On max it did not exist at all. All you did was schedule a recording to happen at a time of you choosing. It was not linked to the Programme at all and essentially it was doing what a VHS recording would do, if you remember them?
On B.yond if the show moves slot the series link will know and record the show from it's new time slot without you needing to worry.

Just fit to screen Discovery

Btw you said earlier

will broadcast a 16:9 letterbox.

That translates to a 16:9 show letterboxed for a 4:3 signal. There is no broadcast format that is both 16;9 and letterboxed

For series link....how will the series link will differentiate between CSI for current season with old season.

Lets say, I'm only want to record new CSI episode, season 10 , every Wednesday, weekly....
Let's say there is also CSI episode season 9 repeat with different episode everyday at 7.00 am

Will it only record CSI season 10 one time....or will it also record all the different episode including the season 9 one???
