recording priorities not considered properly
Posted: Fri Jun 05, 2015 6:11 pm
Schedule 1 (Record all Films with Actor "XXX", "YYY", ...)
- Normal Priority
- Unique Titles
- With Actor: XXX, YYY, ...
Schedule 2 (Record Series "AAA" where actor "XXX" is also in the cast)
- High Priority
- Episodes once
Upcoming Recordings:
- Although Schedule 2 has a higher priority then Schedule 1, only recordings for Schedule 2 are listed.
- And since Unique Titles is checked in Schedule 1, only the first upcoming Episode of the series is recorded.
- Schedule 2 is always overridden by Schedule 1.
===
Tried also:
Schedule 2a
- High Priority
- Episodes once
- With Actor: XXX
This worked when i created a new Schedule 3 for recording films with XXX.
The original Schedule 1 still overrides the changed Schedule 2.
All in all i think, that the recording engine is not considering the higher priority of Schedule 2 properly.
===
Update:
Matter of fact, it depends on when the Schedule was saved. The last saved schedule always "wins"!
When I save Schedule 2 or 2a after saving Schedule 1, then all Episodes are scheduled correctly.
when I save Schedule 1 first, then it wins and only the first episode is scheduled.
The priority is... well... in that case for nothing.
