michael Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I always record the Formula 1 races on SKY+ so I can skip the Lewis Hamilton documentary at the start of each one and the adverts, each time I bookmark it I see the "series link" option but it never works. Would be nice to have all the races bookmarked and set to record instead of having to go in and do it each time. Just wondered if it works for anyone else or if it's a universal issue, I suspect they don't have the info far enough in advance to list them all but they offer the option to series link...

MrRalphMan Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 TBH I haven't tried, does it give you the series option when going to record it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Yeah the option is there but once it's thought about it for a while it doesn't do anything, much like the SKY customer services people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveK Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Oh my god. I haven't watched any of the GPs this year and I thought Michael was exaggerating a bit about the Lewis Hamilton biography. But..... are there actually any other people in this race???? I'm bored now - I'm switching it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 are there actually any other people in this race???? I'm bored now - I'm switching it off. Er, your post is at 17:05, and unless my ITV is running behind yours, they haven't actually started yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Er, your post is at 17:05, and unless my ITV is running behind yours, they haven't actually started yet? The Lewis Hamilton stuff is before the race, surprisingly enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Guess whos account I'll be deleting tomorrow Not mine I don't have one, cancelled and set another one up as the missus to get a better deal, SKY didn't seem interested in giving the same SKY+ deals to existing customers. Oh my god. I haven't watched any of the GPs this year and I thought Michael was exaggerating a bit about the Lewis Hamilton biography. But..... are there actually any other people in this race???? I ended up driving to Ipswich and back today so haven't seen it yet but the Lewis Hamilton thing has been going on since the first race, it's cool he's a good British driver and all that but calm down ITV.

SimonB Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 The way the series link feature works, it only bookmarks the next in the series when it starts recording the current one. Also, it only works a max of 2 weeks in advance, so if there's longer than that between episodes it misses it. I think the GP they have the quali down as the same as the GP, so it probably will record the USA qualifying, then when that starts it will mark the actual race down to record.

penguin Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 sometimes the series link does not work correctly and, i've noticed that whenever i've recorded prison break via series link, i can seem to "fast forward" the commercials - BUT it ALWAYS goes back 15 min automatically and i have to watch the whole thing again - has been happening every week and only on prison break :blink; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
