TELUS TV Feature Updates - Ongoing

Another recording gremlin... Unbelievable!

I have a series recording for Pat McAfee Show on TSN 901. It's often preempted by other sports events. Yet occasionally it broadcasts on another channel TSN 904. 

Would be convenient (asking too much?) for it to record on "any channel" (ala "anytime once per day").

And to add to the frustration (madness) when you try manually setting a one time record on the alternate channel (i.e outside the Scheduled Series Reording) it responds 'Recording cannot be set"

Brutal!

I see you get duplicates recoding on the same day as well. Yes I have found many reruns are treated as first run.

Now just checking scheduled and recorded Tracker just started with one recorded show of new season. Is this a spring break delay and it shows no scheduled in next 12 days. We shall see

Other shows as well 

Managing recordings is the least concern at this point. 

From my perspective, not the least bit interested in recording reruns neither. 

Having the function to choose the option is fine.

The fact is the option to choose 

• first run only   

does not work. When selected it doesn't recognize the program's schedule whether it's daily or weekly broadcast. 

Requires one to default to the 

• first run and reruns 

hence, adds to the cleanup maintenance and more specifically eats up unnecessary storage space.

 Unfortunately, one minute pre/post recording will not cut it for a lot of programs. 

While on the topic on every other  PVR I have previously used there is always the option to select how many recordings to keep.  Because I normally record news type programs I only want to keep the latest episode.  I have found that once the number of recordings gets too large it slows down bringing up the recording list on the Apple TV.  Before there was the option to delete multiple recordings I had 150 episodes of some shows.  I would imagine this takes up a lot of space on the Telus side as well.  I now go and delete recordings every few days but this is kind of a pain - it would be much easier  to have the cloud PVR limit the recordings to a user specific amount.  Thanks

Additionally, on the new Optik platform live sporting events are auto extended already (60 minutes for all live sports events, 90 minutes for tennis).

Thanks for the feedback. We'll pass it on to our Optik team for sure.
