Double episodes

Twice now I have been caught out after series linking V and Human Target.The series V ended on a double bill,but only recorded the first episode of the 2,and Human Target opened with a double bill, but again only recorded the first one.There where no clashes,so why did this happen?Using a sammy V+ box.

Re: Double episodes

Some channel's listings are really poor and recordings pretty much have to be done manually. Its the luck of the draw unfortunately.

Re: Double episodes

Thanks for the reply Jameseh.If it states in the V+ box epg listings that it is a double episode,then surely both should be recorded if on series link,otherwise what is the point.

Re: Double episodes

Maybe the episode is labeled as 'Programme Name: Part 2" so then it is only searching for just 'Programme Name' and doesn't detect the mis-labelling.

Whatever the reason, it is really poor I agree.
