Did some experimenting today.
It appears that you can go over 1,000 series links,
but, this causes a problem as after number 999 the last one is labelled as 100 and no more are displayed.
This means that any series links after 1,000 are unmanageable ie if you add more they are not displayed and therefore cannot be deleted, prioritised etc.
So the answer seems to be that you can add more, but unless some are deleted you aren't able to, say, prioritise a new series that you particularly want to see.
I'm going to have to decide whether to delete some series that I don't think will ever return or that I'm not too bothered about (and as has been mentioned this will have the advantage that the V6 won't be wasting resources checking the dead links)
or just carry on as normal and hope that the 6 tuners will mean that no programmes fail to record because I can't prioritise them.
I'll probably just carry on as I have been as it will save the laborious task of manually deleting stuff and returning series will be recorded automatically.
Regularly checking Planned Recordings should deal with any clashes (which I do anyway).
Whilst I have more than the norm for an average user, I think that this problem will eventually affect more people with the passage of time (particularly in larger households) as I doubt most people bother to cancel a SL when a series has ended.
Out of interest, do those with hardly any series links routinely cancel their SL's or is it simply because you don't use the feature very much?
