Strange Series Link
 
Just checked out my series link programs which are waiting to record next
week and they are all an hour out.
Now I know this will be something to do with the clocks being set back
tomorrow, however it is still strange that the EPG still says that the
programs are at the right time. This makes me think the the series link
information is not gained from the EPG software in the SKY + box, but from
else where. An example of this is Stargate SG-1 shows as starting at 8:00 pm
on my personal planner but shows 9:00pm on the EPG.

This is *by design*. The programmes *will* record properly from the EPG,
series linked or not. The only problem will be with manual records (which
the software attempts to compensate for, but they've cocked it up).

The EPG shows you local time for when a programme is listed - so there
are two 1ams on Sunday.

The planner shows you the time for a recording as it was/will be in the
current timezone. (After the clocks change, old recordings' times will
change too).

I know it's a bit bogging at first, but their solution is probably the
best way to deal with the time issue.
