TW DVR - Duplicate Recordings

[jarmstrong]

Hello, I just wanted to inquire if any else has noticed the duplicate recording with their DVR? What is happening to me, I have a "record series", on "any channel" set up to what "This Old House xxx". What is happening to me, is that the recording is recording the "exact" same programs on HGTV channel 45 AND then again on channel 851. It is also happening on for on the DYI network and channel 852. The website doesn't even list these channels, but they are now showing up in my channel guide online. I really don't want to set the recording option only to channel 45, since the programs are also shown on DYI and wsyx.

Any thoughts?

It's a bit of a downside to their new analog conversion process that's going on right now. Since there's no option to not record a certain channel your only option will be to create three recording series for the three channels of interest. In the future they may be able to update the software of the guide to not record the same channel (even if it shows up on different channel numbers).

On the opposite side of that, I am having problems with the DVR not recording when it should.
I have Robot Chicken and Family Guy set up to record first runs only. For the past 2 weeks, even though they are first runs, they are not recording. Thankfully I have been home. They dont even show in the program guide as being set to record.
I tried to re-setup the recording of both of them, but the DVR would not accept it. There is plenty of room to record new shows. Has anyone else had a similar issue?
