RTL have 5 programs covering the Formula 1 race this weekend...

Formel 1: Freies Training
Formel 1: Qualifying
Formel 1: Countdown
Formel 1: Das Rennen
Formel 1: Siegerehrung und Highlights

For all these different programs the EPG shows "Formel 1". The colon and the remaining part of the program name is missing.
Several of these "Formel 1" programs follow each other so it isn't easy to tell which is which and the autotimer plugin can't be used to record the one or two interesting ones without picking up all 5.

I wonder if the colon is causing the name to be truncated. Is there a fix?

Im letzten Jahr sollte der Große Preis von Bahrain den Formel-1-Reigen eröffnen, doch wegen politischer Unruhen musste das Rennen Ende Februar abgesagt werden. Ein Novum in der Geschichte der Formel 1. Erst im Jahre 2004 fand das Debütrennen auf der arabischen Halbinsel statt. An Stelle von Champagner wurd nach dem Rennen 'Warrd', ein spezial für diesen Anlass entwickeltes Getränk versprüht. Es wird aus verschiedenen in Bahrain heimischen ... (tvtv66)

I could alter the download definition to include this in the title, hever this would have it repercussions for other programs, resulting i very long program titles.

For your problem with the autotimer, there is a setting provided in autotimer to use a filter t record only what you want.

The autotimer entry would then look like this:

<timer name="Law &amp; Order" match="Law &amp; Order" enabled="yes" from="21:00" to="01:30" location="/hdd/movie/Detectives/">
<serviceref>1:0:19:521C:C99:3:EB0000:0:0:0:</serviceref> <!-- NET5 HD -->
<serviceref>1:0:1:FA3:451:35:C00000:0:0:0:</serviceref> <!-- NET5 -->
<include where="shortdescription">Criminal Intent</include>
</timer>

This is the entry I use to record onl the Criminal Intent series of Law & Order.
