    Hi StevieBeeMan,

    Unfortunately you can't set a recording for an upcoming programme if it's not showing on the 360 TV guide.

    It's one of the many differences between the TiVo software used on the V6 and the Horizon software used on the 360 box.

Hi StevieBeeMan,

All is not lost. If you record an episode - for instance of Doctor Who - and choose the 'record future episodes' option (or whatever it's called) then the 360 will remember this perpetually, and you will find future episodes appear in your planned recordings. I hope this helps.

To quote the OP... "I want to record the new episodes of Doctor Who ....can’t set a planned recording because there are no episodes to press the record button on"
