Arg, are there any plans afoot to sort the plus 1 problem when recording things on series link (or even just recording single episodes). Or is there a way round it?

The EPG, or at least the one on my T1050 seems to treat the original and timeshifted broadcast as the same thing, even when not recording on series link. When you want to record several things accross the course of the evening it can scupper your plans by filling up the two recording slots. The problem has been exacerbated by the launch of 2+1

I asked DishTV, but got a completely incomprehenisble reply (or am I just being thick):

"HI
The box will always book on the normal channel and then the plus one channel this is because the program is the same, but if you wish to enter in other bookings at a later time it will come up with a message saying it has to make the booking at a alternate time this will not cause issues with recording."

Makes it sound like they ain't doing anything about it.
