I'm not aware of any unique identifiers in any publically available data but<br>

<br></font></blockquote></div><br clear="all">While I have often used the option hads is talking about, I got into a wierd overlapping situation with TV3 +1 for recording NCIS (for example) when we missed the first episode and started the record on the plus 1 channel, it meant that we then had one episode this week (right down to the last hour of the week!) We then had to switch to "Record at any time" and get two copies each week with a WAF factor of "minor irritation". What exactly is in the MHEG data that we can see on F12, are there xml links to record series within that info? (I've looked briefly and not seen it either)<br>
