Recording Emmerdale, Series Link Problem
For about the past 2 weeks when I record Emmerdale the series link doesn't work and I have to set up the next episode to record by hand. I have done a full system reset and I am still having the same problem. Is this happening to anyone else? I am using a version 2 box.

It's almost like it figured it was the end of the series because the show's not on on Saturdays...
Living is notorious for the way that series links intermittently appear and disappear. Try "Most Haunted" which will link fine for ages, then fail to. Manually set it, and you'll find there's not even an OPTION for Series Link. But it will re-appear a few weeks later. SOme channels don't link at all. The BBC ones are amongst the most reliable.
TiVo does the job far better, as they simply take the schedules and do the linking (which is far more sophisticated anyway) themselves.
But this is just another in the ongoing seemingly endless problems Sky+ has had over the past 6 months.It worked fine for 2.5 years,then after the 20/7 download its all gone wrong.
Time to move over to my Freeview HDD recorder.It records all I tell it to.Series link cannot go wrong though-the bloody thing does not have one.
If I could give you mine I would !!!
About 2 hrs ago, Emmerdale complete with series link, suddenly appeared in my planner set to record.
I know for a fact it wasn't there earlier. Maybe this is a future feature that Sky should provide users with. If your Series Linked programmes vanish, hunt around for another user who has had it appear. Press a button and hey presto, the programme has been sent.
Sky+ is really acting strange at the moment............or should I say stranger !!

Of course this is only of any use if the person who's box they are setting tells them - of course they may have got it wrong and set a number of boxes to do this (surely not.....)
Many thanks.
Please can you tell me what ITV1 region you are in, and what, if any, series linked ITV1 programmes you have recorded today.
Aswell as Emmerdale appearing in my planner with series links, over the past month or so The Bill and Harry Hill, both on ITV, have vanished from my planner.
I have the odd hicup with BBC series links, however very rarely. It always seems to be ITV.

No probs with series link till then....................
oops, just noticed Xfactor results (sad git!) not in planner for saturday night.

The wife is driving mad with her, "Get it sorted", "I'd better not miss any" and the most annoying "TiVO NEVER did this".
Oh hang on she has just shouted down that the ITV news at 6:30pm has been added.
I am in the ITV Wales region for the guy who was asking.
They had better get it sorted by next week as there are THREE Corries on Monday, two on Wednesday and two on Friday. Sky will appear on my divorce papers if any recordings fail.
A BBC NE programme added by itself a couple of weeks ago.
