Keeping shows from deleting

How do I save all the episodes from a TV show I’ve recorded from being deleted because what I’m doing is not working? When I go to “My shows,” click an episode, then go to “more options,” click “modify this link+,” and then go down to “keep until I delete” and save it, it doesn’t work. It doesn’t save all the episodes to stop them from being deleted. The only way is to go episode by episode and click “keep until” delete. Surely there must be another way?

    Programmes are only deleted when a planned recording being made, will cause the disk to breach a certain limit - which, although undocumented, is around the 95% mark.

    What do you mean by, what you're doing "is not working"?

      When I try to keep all shows from being deleted in the series settings for a particular series nothing changes so the episodes continue to be deleted within 24 hours unless I manually go through each show to set that the episode is not deleted.

    Still trying to work out the issue you have!

    Do you have a problem with programmes on a particular series deleting? Or programmes in general?

    What percentage of your disk space is used - look at the top of your "My shows" list?
