    I've owned a number of Humax boxes, going back to Humax PVR-9200T which I think was first, and all of them have had issues with series record. The majority of the problems as Graham has pointed out is bad data from the broadcasters and nothing to do with the box itself.

    I have also owned a number of different Humax boxes that support series record and my experience is that if the box is tuned to a single transmitter and recordings are from channels that support accurate recording then series recording works really well; certainly not perfect but problems are infrequent.

    None of the kit here in this thread is tuned to multiple transmitters.

    I have found a new one.

    Setting on Aura

    Both today

    4-HD new series 15:00 A Place In The Sun Setting Series - not flagged in epg and no cancel option. Schedule is correct and shows all within current epg

    Followed by another new Series 16:00 A new Life In the Sun. Set series appears in epg and Schedule is correct.

    Can someone else set same to confirm same result ?

    This one looks to be Aura only as it sets and displays as expected on my 4000t.

    Not on my 5000T. It is the same as the Aura. It might be transmitter related. as per #53

    Just as a part of testing, have you plugged a usb/hdd into your TV and tried to set up the same recording?

    Nope. With the number of PVRs I have no point. The TV freesat tuner actually uses the Foxsat-HDR tuner 1 out to get a Freesat feed. This will be limited when the Foxsat-HDR is recording.

    It does not have an aerial feed to the aerial socket.

    I have another Android TV device (A Vbox)) I can try the Bargain Hunt series on.

    I have set this as a series. This box should continue to record any Bargain Hunt on BBC1- HD until the series is cancelled.
