I think you're doing this sub-optimally. Instead of "Record only this showing", choose "Find and record one showing" (it's called something like that), so if "Tanks" is showing 3 times over the next 2 weeks, it can pick any one of them. I do this all the time for recording weekend movies and PBS documentaries (granted, there are not multiple broadcasts of network movies, but PBS documentaries are usually broadcast a few times). Much easier to browse the two weeks for the few you want, instead of deselecting the 30 you don't want ... --Rob
