Setting recordings on 360 far into the future?

Hi, Is it possible on 360 to set recordings for programmes that you know will have a future season coming out but aren't currently available as you could on the older software please? 

E.g. BBC Africa Eye will have more episodes coming out in the future but I can't see anyway how to record these on 360?

Nope. This is one of the many lost features between the 360 and V6.

Hi jamest6,

If you had a series link set for BBC Africa Eye and used either "New Only" or "From this episode onwards" using the Advanced options, then the 360 will record any future series shown unless you cancel the series link when deleting the old episodes.

Re: Setting recordings on 360 far into the future?

Hey there @jamest6, thanks for reaching out to us and a warm welcome to the Virgin Media forums page!

Unfortunately we don't offer to allow future seasons to be recorded 😞
However, have you tried the advice given by @roy247
It may be of benefit.

Let us know.

Kind regards,
Ilyas.

Thanks, that's a shame to hear. Why has this feature been remove from 360? 

It worked great on the old software!

Re: Setting recordings on 360 far into the future?

To be fair, if a feature isn't available in the first place, it hasn't really been removed.

A semantic argument perhaps, but fundamentally TV360 is different to TiVo in the same way as Apple is different to Android. There are many differences between the two - some good, some bad.
