OK! I just came back to say it didn't do what you said...
How does the Sky box manage to do this? I just tested side by side and it works fine. It's actually a feature that's very handy to have to avoid forgetting to set it again.

What didn't do what I said ? If you need to set a series recording for a programme already started you have to find the next occurrence in the epg to set one.

Before you edited the reply, I understood that it would prompt for series link on a program already started and it just happened to be unlucky. Now, since your edit, I understand that it just can't be done on the 1100s.
Is there a reason why it couldn't be implemented? Does the Sky EPG continually send series link info but the Freesat EPG only sends series link info for future programs?

Never having had a Sky box, I have no idea. Clearly Sky uses a different system for series recording. It's always been the same afaik on all Freesat+ boxes. I don't know at what stage after a recording has started the CRID codes become unavailable, perhaps another member may have more information.

OK a minor issue. Just getting used to the transition from a Sky box. There's a couple of things both interfaces do better than the other, so it's a compromise!
I cancelled and deleted all recordings. No reboots in 3 days!! Not ideal but will suffice until new firmware is made available
Hi. Just an update to say the problem of reboots has gone away.
I was on holiday for ten days shortly after the problem arose. Left box on standby.
I also used Android remote app a couple of times to set recordings and all ok.
Assuming I had the same problem as everyone else I can only assume the Freesat advice, Satellite signal, was the cause or a firmware update has taken place. I didn't do anything.
Hope everyone else is finding problem has stopped.
Update from freesat dated today on this issue:

Bet there was some colourful language over that one.
Sorry I find that explanation hard to swallow, mine only ever did it on the Friday night I joined this forum. I don't think I had any recordings with special characters or any overly long titles. I never deleted any recordings, I just left it powered down over night after factory resetting it, and have never had the problem again. I have also never used the set up by mobile function.
