The Tablo guide does a great job of showing scheduled episodes by season. It would be helpful to limit recordings of non “new” episodes to only a single season, or by default all seasons.
Hrm…
What’s the use case for this?
Are you trying to say, only record older episodes of a particular season of Simpsons episodes?
Yes, that’s what he’s saying, and I would love this new feature, as well.
Example…
I watched seasons 1 thru 3 of a series a long time ago.
Got busy, and never watched season 4, which are considered old episodes now.
Season 5 episodes are currently considered new episodes now.
I want to record season 4 without selecting record all.
I’m transitioning from my old DVR to Tablo. I have about half of the current season of several shows yet to watch, so I figured I’d start recording them in reruns over the summer. Unfortunately, if I choose “record all”, I’ll get a fair number of really old episodes that I’m not interested in. I’ve narrowed this down by setting the recording to only be on the primary network channel, but even there I see 3-4 old episodes a week at various odd times.
I initially thought that I would want a timer based recording, but after seeing the episodes arranged by season, it occurred to me that choosing a specific program and season would be exactly what I would want.
Gotcha!
That’s a super cool suggestion! Will definitely pass it along to the team!
Agreed, add me to the list. My use case is the show “American Dad” (No judging please)…
They show the “New Season” on one of those cable channels I don’t get, but they show the previous season over the air on CW…
Right now I have it set to record ALL, since last season isn’t technically NEW.
It IS NEW to OTA but not NEW on its own.
But of course this means I grab a LOT more than just last season.
On a similar note, would love to be able to delete by season as well, for the exact same reason…
