I'm starting to feel high-maintenance with all my posting... :-(
I'm having problems scheduling some recordings. Here's an example... I deleted all previous autorec entries and any manual entries in the schedule and restarted tvheadend before I tried this.
1. I search on Title "power rangers", and filter on channel "Channel 5". I get one entry appear, which is next Saturday's episode at 10:00
2. I create an autorec rule from this...
This will create an automatic rule that continuously scans the EPG for programmes to record that matches this query:
Title:power rangers
Channel:Channel 5
Tag:Don't care
Genre:Don't care
Currently this will match (and record) 1 events. Are you sure?
3. I check the DVR schedule, and this episode is now ready to record. So far, so what.
4. syslog shows the event has been caught:
Oct 21 13:24:48 revo tvheadend[9104]: dvr: "Power Rangers Super Samurai" on "Channel 5" starting at 2012-10-27 09:59:00, scheduled for recording by "Auto recording by: xbmc"
5. I now do the same on Channel 5+1, because my kids will abuse me with extreme prejudice if I miss it. Same episode, same day, merely one hour later (who'd've guessed).
This will create an automatic rule that continuously scans the EPG for programmes to record that matches this query:
Title:power rangers
Channel:Channel 5+1
Tag:Don't care
Genre:Don't care
Currently this will match (and record) 1 events. Are you sure?
6. This rule now appears alongside the former one... to an earlier query, SeriesLink is clearly "no" on both.
7. The episode does not appear in my recorder schedule
8. Nothing appears in syslog, which validates the fact that it hasn't been scheduled
9. Trying to manually schedule the same episode and it resolutely refuses to go into the schedule
It's almost as if SeriesLink is on whether I want it or not... both episodes are subtitled Season 1.Episode 1/21 (I'm using XMLTV as the source, combining grabbers from the Radio Times Freeview, Radio Times Freesat and Sky (because the Radio Times doesn't seem to include all Freesat channels - see http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=128578 if you're interested).
Checking the autorec files, they're there...
hts@revo:~/.hts/tvheadend/autorec$ more 11
{
"id": "11",
"enabled": 1,
"creator": "xbmc",
"comment": "Created from EPG query",
"channel": "Channel 5",
"contenttype": 0,
"title": "power rangers",
"approx_time": 0,
"weekdays": "1,2,3,4,5,6,7",
"pri": "normal"
}
hts@revo:~/.hts/tvheadend/autorec$ more 12
{

}

Reversing the order of adding the rules doesn't change anything... I still only get the C5 event.
Any thoughts?
