I then changed the series link option to record only New episodes which are shown at 21:30 but the planned recordings still show repeats. Is there anyway of preventing the repeats so that TiVo only records the episodes as a series at 21:30?

Another thing about series links, I presumed with TiVo you can set a series link for anything. I tried setting a series link for a program that I know the V+ identifies as a series but TiVo only provides the option to record the program once. TiVo shows upcoming episodes of the show but it doesn't allow a series link to be set, why could this be?
Hi

Can you let me know what the examples are which you quote.

The first problem could be down to the programme not having the correct EPG data - it will normally avoid recording duplicates of the same episode.

I have not come across any instances where series links are not offered as an option. What is the programme?
