Renaming recorded shows

**Wiked** · 12-01-2006, 10:45 PM

Hi all,

When I go into Tivoweb>mfsStream and edit the names of shows I have recorded something strange happens.

For instance, I have all the V8 Supercar rounds that were recently replayed on Foxtel. Now they were only listed as 'V8 Supercars' and I would like to add say - Round 1, - Round 2 etc to the title so I know which is which in the now playing area.

When I rename one of them in mfsStream, all of them are renamed the same thing. This happens around 90% of the time so 10% of the time it will only rename the one I am doing like it should.

Anybody have any ideas?

I use mfs_ftp to transfer shows.

But to edit titles before archiving, I usually just click on the episode in nowshowing, then click edit program, change the details, hit save.

I haven't seen the fault you describe.

I thought it may have been as I was using Firefox but tried it in IE and still the same thing happens.

Also have noticed something else regarding this.

When the 3rd VB Cricket final was on recently I recorded it. Now it was listed on the EPG as I guess nobody knew there would be a 3rd final etc.

Now I renamed it to be called 'Cricket 3rd Final'. Easy enough I thought.

Now since then when I look at the EPG for ch 9 the programs that are on in the time frame the cricket was on are called 'Cricket 3rd Final'.

Now if I delete the cricket then the EPG will list correctly again as I have tried this with another recorded show.

So in other words..if I record say 'A Current Affair' tonight on Ch 9 at 6.30pm, then if I go into Tiviweb and change the name of the show to 'ACA' then all future A Current Affair shows will be listed in the EPG now as ACA until I delete the show I recorded.

Sometimes there are late programming changes where you need to rename the recorded shows but until I find a fix for this I cannot rename them.

Is there anyway I can bypass this? Or just don't edit the names of recorded shows the only answer?

Thanks

This will occur on any show that is part of a series.

The Series has been given a TiVo ID and whilst you still have recordings with the changed name stored, the new name will stick to future recordings.

I don't know a way around this using tivoweb, but there probably is a way to manually disassociate it in the mfs.
