Series record issue.

That's what newk was for, now the same function is available as a preset in sweeper.
A common misconception even for those who understand that the C/F for the HDR-FOX T2 isn't usable on either an Aura or a 5000T.

The HDR-FOX T2 C/F's Newk works on folder names, not on file names - so sweeper is more of an addition than an alternative.
 
If Channel 4 / FreeView fix this, will we still have to reset all our Channel 4 Series Links anyway?

That would be a minor PITA.
I'm already having fun with a series link on C4 that was working after the problem was reported and now isn't. (The "Astrid et Raphaëlle" rip-off "Patience". Yesterday and today series linked, next week not linked and can't be linked).

I have set up new single episode schedules for all the shows that lost series record on my Aura but have left the series record schedules showing 0 episodes in the schedule list, they may spring back to life and I may end up with 2 of everything but better 2 than none.
 
You were not specific:

"Any" being the operative word, therefore not excluding HDR-FOX.
It used to be possible to determine what equipment people had if they added it to their signature. You and I both had them. They seem to have vanished. (Well, I can't see them) My assumption you could read the signature was therefore invalid. Sorry.

Signatures are still visible. Are you using a mobile phone, or tablet in portrait mode, as this can sometimes hide them. Try using landscape mode, and they should be visible.

You also have to be logged in, and also have your preference option set for signature viewing in posts.
 
FYI On the Channel 4 News series link, Sunday's episode has re-appeared.

Not Saturday's.

Nor Monday's onwards.

Nor any other that are definitely due.

I'll let tonight play out and set new ones on Saturday.

Yes, mobile in portrait. I thought I'd seen signatures in this format before, but perhaps I'm wrong - I often am. Works in landscape. Therefore probably no excuse for BH missing my equipment list, unless he's turned off the viewing of signatures or ignores them. :)

I can confirm that my series record for The Great pottery Throw Down Ch4sd and Celebrity Hunted Ch4sd all on Sunday have come back to life and show 1 episode in my schedule list but Mondays 24 Hours in Police Custody Ch4sd is still showing 0.
 
I am now seeing series links for Channel4 series on Saturday onwards and my Countdown recording is fully populated for next week using the same series Crid as before

A fix in the nick of time!

It must have been sorted soon after my last post at 1.20pm, Mondays 24 Hours in Police Custody Ch4sd is now showing 1 episode again. The TV guide shows them as series recordings and no way to cancel the single recording schedule I had set. I guess I could cancel the series record and re set it but I am just going to leave it be and see what happens, Doubles? Singles? Fails? time will tell, all on catch up so no real risk.

"Patience" is also back with a series link for the next episodes, but the series CRID, from when you posted, isn't the same one (I presume). The series link I made shortly after you posted remains unresolved for the next episode.

I didn't check the CRID but I'd set two standalone recordings. When I went to cancel one to set the series link the Aura offered to delete both, which is what I wanted. Strange!
 
Which suggests it is using database queries to present all matching entries rather than just finding the first one as you might if simply searching an array.
 
Without rooting the Aura (if that's even possible), finding the relevant piece of code and possibly reverse engineering it - we'll never know for sure.

The one that annoys me is when you look at the first showing, and it shows as a series recording, but then because it clashes with something else you want to record at the same time so select an alternative recording time, only to find that the alternative time is not set up as a series. Yesterday seem to be good at doing this.

I have not had that happen more than once or twice luckily but even that cannot be as annoying as setting a series record for something and then setting a second series record for a different show on a different day and being told you cannot because too many other things are scheduled for that time because the first series record is not only recording the show you set it for but also all its repeats during the week ahead and one repeat takes up the slot you want and cancelling it cancels them all.
