Title: Recording errors - Guy Martin & Almost Human
Post by: dale_mac on January 29, 2016, 09:28:58 PM
I realised today that the second episode of "India with Guy Martin" on SBS2 didn't record yesterday.
I have no idea why because I can't go backwards with the Windows guide. I only know it isn't there. Could it have been incorrectly named so didn't record?
I don't know why SBS decided the correct name of "Our Guy in India" had to be changed.
I also had an episode of "Almost Human" recording on Gem on Tuesday night that stopped before the end because "Death Wish" was still running half an hour into my recording.
Again I can't verify anything because I can't go back in the guide.
Has anyone else have any issues lately with shows not recording correctly?

I noticed "India With Guy Martin" was on... after it had finished.  :(

Our database shows that the same episode was shown on the 21st and the 28th. The program title was "India With Guy Martin" and the episode title was "Our Guy in India".

Apart from the 1 episode of "India With Guy Martin" and the 4 episodes of "Speed With Guy Martin" our database also lists a program called "Guy Martin's Spitfire" but it doesn't say if it has been on or not. Looking at the images online it looks familiar... but then again so do the images from all Spitfire restoration shows.

Sorry, can't help you with Almost Human.

We also recorded that episode of Almost Human, and missed the ending, even with 25 min post-padding (5 min longer than the default post-padding set by the Beyonwiz IceTV plugin).

I guess the only consolation is that it wasn't something I did wrong to cause the error. My padding was 30 minutes. I always set it long on the commercial networks.

Unfortunately they weren't the same episode. Episode one was on the 21st and episode two was supposed to be on the 28th.
If they were both on the database as the same episode, it explains why it didn't record.

Cheers for the replies,
