I think we're talking about slightly different things. In this case its from the UI in the upload or schedule screen if you trype in a name that doesn't match a series it gets created ....

Hi Edmore,

the idea behind the automatic creation of series is to satisfy ingest of media 
packages via the inbox that *do* contain a series dublin core. This would be 
the case if you were to import mediapackages from a different university or 
another system.

Does that make sense?

Hi All,

We have recently been making changes to the Admin UI on our UCT branch. We 
noticed a duplication bug in the automatic creation of a series via the 
Uploading Recording /  Schedule Recording UIs ( 
http://opencast.jira.com/browse/MH-8597 ).
Our initial thought was to disable the automatic creation of a non-existing 
series completely but we figured it would be best to first fix that bug and to 
find out from the community the rationale behind the automatic creation 
feature. For instance a series created in that manner does not have any 
metadata.
Should this feature be part of the Uploading Recording / Schedule Recording UI 
or simply be localised to the Series Creation UI ? What are your thoughts on 
this?

Regards,

Edmore Moyo
