Is there a playlist feature?
 
Is there a way I can automatically play several recordings on my v6 back-to-back? I need to play at least four hour's worth of shows without any human intervention.

I see that if you have more than one recording of a show, you can play all the recordings of that show which the v6 calls "Play all recordings in this group", but I would like to play different shows. Is there a feature where I can create a group/folder on the v6 to allow me to do this?

thanks

I don't think there is, that would be a good feature to have.

I haven't tried this for years, but IIRC if you can contrive a WishList that matches them all, you can then play that WishList folder as you would a Series Link folder

You're welcome. If watching via VOD is ok for you as an alternative to playing recordings, this development might be of interest to you.

VM are now advertising that channel 700 can be used for making personal playlists (children's programming), Perhaps this will be extended to other genres??

With the rise of online viewing, I think that this is a good idea and could be a USP for VM if it could be used across all genres. You would effectively be scheduling your own TV channel for the evening!

Does this mean you can set the playing of several recordings to follow one after the other or not?

This was the original question as I recall.

I assume so, not had a play with it myself.
