View Full Version : Season Passes say None Scheduled in To Do List (erroneously)

For several weeks now (at least) my To Do list always shows multiple Season Passes as having none scheduled when there are one or more in fact scheduled. All along I've seen this, but only in very specific circumstances: say a show plays at 7pm weekly and then repeats at 10pm on same channel - if I didn't have any of the 7pm's scheduled, it would show up as none scheduled in the To Do list. But recently there are multiple Season Passes that don't meet this criteria, and I can't figure out what's causing it. It's beginning to REALLY bug me because I have to manually check each one frequently to make sure one isn't actually valid - so far it's always been in error. Any insight and/or suggestions on fixing this problem?

This is on a Series2 DT box.

Thanks,
Bonita

It happened to me also.....but, Tivo will not records Repeats for me and that is why "The Unit" and "NCSI" did not show up on the "To Do List."

I just recorded them anyway, just in case.

And it looks like they canceled "Smith."

If you choose to select a different show than would normally record, then the show would be listed in None Scheduled even when there are shows listed to be recorded.

For instance, let's say you have an SP of The Daily Show. That show repeats quite a bit. Normally (if your SP isn't scheduled to record all, including duplicates), it will record the first showing only (for me that's 11:00pm). If you manually change the SP to record the late night recording instead (for me about 2:00am), and you do this for all the upcoming recordings, then the SP will be listed in the None Scheduled because none of the default shows are scheduled to be recorded.

Now I agree that the SP should be smart enough to deal with this, but for now that's how it works.

Also, it doesn't consider a scheduled recording to be an SP recording if you make any changes to the recording options for the individual airing, for example, adding padding. If you make changes, you'll see the recording as a single checkmark instead of double in your ToDo list, and your TiVo will no longer count that recording as occurring b/c of the SP.
