I can't delete a channel to prevent the Recast from recording a series on a channel it seems to think is also showing the series. For example, a series set to record on my local NBC station will sometimes record an hour on a Spanish language channel - not the show in Spanish, but some random Spanish talk show. I have tried to "hide" the channel, delete the series scheduled recordings and reschedule, but still the problem persists. One week it will record from the correct channel, the next week it won't. I don't watch Spanish language channels, so I just want to delete them. Every TV since the invention of digital tuners has allowed for the deletion of channels not sure why this isn't possible on the Recast. I know the go-to "solution" is to update and restart the devices, but I've done this several times with no luck.
One would think that setting up a recording should be the same process no matter how you do it within the user interface and this issue has caused frustration for a lot of us.
Try this. When setting up recordings in the future, If you setup your recordings via the channel guide (select>record series/episode>.....) instead of using the menu button (3 lines), you can select the specific channel you want the show to record from. If trying to record the show your currently watching, use the menu button.
