Occasionally I will manually delete IceTV recordings for individual episodes, for whatever reason.  If these episodes are subsequently updated in the IceTV system (e.g. start time is changed by a few minutes), then the deleted recording will reappear in the "My Week" list, and will be re-sent to the device.

Is there any way of fixing this problem, so that recordings which have been deleted stay deleted, and aren't re-sent?  This is definitely a server-end issue, not a device/client end issue.

Regards,
Michael.

Hard Quiz
ABC (Canberra)

This episode is currently marked as being a repeat of the S5E13 "Battle of the Duds".  Other online guides indicate that it's a new episode - still a Battle of the Duds, but a new BotD for S6.

ABC

This episode is currently marked as a repeat.  It is a new episode (the last of the series which started last year).

IceTV is currently showing "To Be Advised" in the 19:30-21:00 time slots on Prime7HD Canberra (Mon 1st Feb & Tues 2nd Feb). 

Other online TV guides indicate that "Holey Moley" (AKA the bastard offspring of Wipeout & Mini Golf) will be filling these time slots.

Absentia
Prime 7HD, Canberra (ACT)
10pm, Tuesday 16th June

I have a series timer set to record this show. 

• According to the IceTV web interface, the timer has been sent. 
  According to the Android App, the timer is Queued but hasn't been sent. 
  There is no timer for this show on the Beyonwiz T2.

I suspect that the show had a change of start time, and that things somehow managed to get confused during the process.  I could fix the problem manually, but I would prefer it if the fix was sent from the server end.  Any idea why I'm seeing different timer icons on Android vs Web interface?

Shakespeare & Hathaway
ABC (Canberra - but probably elsewhere as well)
7:30pm, Saturday 6th June

IceTV is currently listing the episode title as "Series 8: Episode 7".  Shakespeare & Hathaway doesn't even have 8 seasons...

The episode is actually Series 3 Episode 2, titled "See Thyself, Devil!".

Android IceTV App v2.29

For some reason the app is only showing timers which have been sent to the devices.  It's not showing timers which are in that 6-7 day window, which appear on the IceTV website but haven't yet been sent.

For example, one of my T2s is scheduled to record "Penn & Teller: Fool Us" and "Stateless" on Sunday night.  I can see these timers on the website, but they're not showing up in "My Week" in the app.

I figured this would be cleaned up with the update on Monday afternoon, but it's now Wednesday and IceTV is still showing TBA from 7pm to 11:30pm (Sunday 23rd Feb).

Other online TV Guides are showing the following:
7pm - Koala Rescue
8:30pm - The Good Doctor
9:30pm - God Friended Me
10:30pm - The Resident

** I'm looking at the IceTV Guide for Canberra, and assuming that the same information is missing for other cities.

Great News (Series 2, Episode 12)
10:10pm, Tuesday 17th December
ABC Comedy
Canberra (ACT)

This episode is currently marked as a repeat.  It is a new episode (the series' penultimate episode), followed by the series final (which is correctly marked as first run).

Utopia
ABC & ABC HD
9pm Wed 4th September

This episode is currently marked as a repeat.  It is a new episode.

Mythbusters
SBS & SBS HD
7:30pm Saturday 31st August

This episode is currently marked as a repeat.  It is a new episode, which has not previously been shown on FTA TV.  It is the first episode of the series, with the "new" Mythbusters who replaced Jamie & Adam.

The Vuelta a'Espania is the Spanish equivalent of the Tour de France, with SBS providing a similar level of coverage.  SBS will be showing every stage live, with the first stage starting at 2:45AM on Sunday (SBS VICELAND HD).  They also show daily highlights, with the first starting at 17:05 (SBS HD).  Both the Live Stages and the Daily Highlights are currently coded in IceTV as "Cycling: La Vuelta".  Would it be possible to code these separately, as is done with the Tour?

Win Bold
Thursday 1st August, 8:30pm
Canberra, ACT

This episode (Mai Ka Po Mai Ka 'oia'i'o - Truth Comes From The Night) is currently marked as a repeat.  It is Season 9, Episode 9, which has not previously been shown on FTA TV (i.e. a new episode). 

I believe it was previously programmed to be shown in June, before 10/Win made a late scheduling change and bumped new Hawaii Five-O episodes from their programming schedule.

Ch10/Win have decided to pull tomorrow (Saturday) night's episode of SEAL Team from the schedule.  This is not surprising, given that it was scheduled to be a repeat of an episode which they had previously pulled from last night's schedule.  What is surprising is what I'm seeing in the corresponding timer on my Beyonwiz.

The episode of SEAL Team ("Say Again Your Last") was scheduled for 10:30pm, on Win BOLD (Canberra, ACT), on Saturday 8th June.  It has been replaced by a Hawaii Five-O repeat episode, "Lana I Ka Moana (Adrift)".

According to the "My Week" page, on the IceTV website, this (repeat) episode is still scheduled to record on my Beyonwiz T2, despite my Series Recording settings for Hawaii Five-O being set to "First Runs Only".

According to the timer on my T2, the device is expecting to record an episode of SEAL Team, but with the Hawaii Five-O episode's description.

How is this possible?

The Blacklist
11:50pm Sunday 10th March
Prime 7HD, Canberra ACT

This episode is currently listed in the IceTV Guide as "The Pawnbrokers" -  Season 6 Episode 4.  This episode was broadcast on Sunday 3rd March.

Next Sunday's episode should be Season 6 Episode 6, "The Ethicist".

Battlebots
9Go!
12:00 Thursday March 7th
Canberra (ACT)

This is a new episode, which is currently marked as a repeat.  I'm guessing last week's episode was too, as my Beyonwiz failed to record it as well.

Prime 7HD in Canberra has shows listed as "To Be Advised" on Monday night (4th February).

Online TV guides have long since filled in these gaps.
9pm - Billy Connolly: The Ultimate World Tour
10pm - Underarm - The Ball that Changed Cricket

At present, the "My Week" page is limited to showing recordings for one device at a time (selectable using the "Devices" dropdown box at the top of the page).  In contrast, the "My Series" page allows users to show series for one (selectable) device or "All" devices.

Would it be possible to add the "All" option to the "My Week" page as well?

Sunday 9th September, 7:30pm (onwards)
Win HD
Canberra, ACT

The IceTV guide is currently showing a single episode of Russell Coight's All Aussie Adventures at 7:30pm, followed by TBA at 8pm & 9pm.

Other online TV guides are showing the following:
7:30pm Russell Coight (double episode)
8:30pm Red 2 (movie)
10:50pm The Sunday Project
11:35pm Elementary

Elementary
Win HD (ACT - Canberra)
11:45pm, Sunday 19th August

I have Elementary set to record as a Series Recording, but I am seeing some very unusual behaviour with next week's episode.

• According to the IceTV android app on my phone & tablet, the timer is marked as a Queued Series Recording - i.e. an unsent timer.
• According to the IceTV website, accessed via Chrome & Firefox, the timer is marked as a Series Recording - i.e. a sent timer.
• According to my T2, there is no such timer.

All other timers in the My Week recording schedule appear to be behaving correctly.

Any idea why I might be seeing this behaviour?  I can fix it relatively easily, by setting the timer manually on the T2, but I'd rather see a fix coming directly from IceTV.
