Recording all programs instead of just new

#1

I have my recording defaults in wmc set to record series as "new" only. However, it is recording every instance. I am running 1.10 and have all the configuration screen check boxes in epg123 checked including "new". The only one I don't have checked is to download logos. Any idea or suggestions? Are others seeing this? Working great otherwise. Would suggest others move to this and ditch ms/rovi.

Take a look at this thread. viewtopic.php?f=99&t=11064

WMC uses the original air date (OAD) to determine new or repeat. Do the episodes that scheduled to record labeled with "Repeat"?

I figured it out with your help. I set up the recording defaults to new but each program was still set to new and rerun. My guess is that because this was a new imaged system I must have set up my series recordings before I set the system default to record only new. Wmc default is new and rerun. Quick fix to go back and update each series in my recording list. Thanks Dan
