The best way to get guide errors corrected is to send an email to tivoguideerrors{AT}virginmedia.co.uk

Does that also apply to "old fashioned" V+ users? Quite happy to use that address, if it's valid...

Re: Post your Missing Series Links Here!! (V+ and Tivo users only).

It's worth a try. Make it clear you are referring to V+.

Re: Post your Missing Series Links Here!! (V+ and Tivo users only).

For what it's worth... writing to this address appears to work. I've emailed a few guide errors to them, and although they don't reply - the errors have always been corrected within a working day.

I series record Big Brother C5HD on both my TiVo and V+, have had no issues on TiVo, but V+ has missed both Friday episodes for the last 2 weeks?

Re: Post your Missing Series Links Here!! (V+ and Tivo users only).

And it missed tonight's episode too (Monday)

I'm pretty sure mine has eg Points Of View.

To list the ones I can remember :-

Harry Hills TV Burp
Eastenders
One born every minute
Dancing on Ice
+ others

Plenty of others have been fine so don't see a link as to why some have failed and others continued

I've found that if the V+ can't record part of a series due to having no space or if one decides to delete one particular episode in "Planned Recordings" or taking the red marker off the EPG, that it often cancels future recordings.

Apologies for bumping an old thread, but seems better than starting a new one. Oh, and I don't know whether the official Virgin support people will respond on the community forum these days.

The Hotel Inspector - this coming Thursday 9pm Channel 5 (and I dare say some of the repeats too) isn't series-linked.

Mine seems to be working ok (V+)

Thank you Spiderplant :)

Re: Post your Missing Series Links Here!! (V+ and Tivo users only).

Not sure if this is how the system works but giving how the TiVo is supposed to be better than the V+ was surprised to find that the series link that my Wife has set up for Holby City didn't record last night. I know that the programme was switched to BBC2 because of the Olympics but thought that it may have 'realised' this.

Is this normal, and if so I suppose this means that I'm going to have to check what other series may be moved to BBC2 and set a link for there as well.

Re: Post your Missing Series Links Here!! (V+ and Tivo users only).

It won't pick up channel changes, but it would if you'd set a wishlist rather than a series link, what it will do is find alternative showings on BBC one, and it's also available on the I player app.
