can i pause certain schedules?

I am going to be out of town for 3 weeks and I do not want my DVR to be clogged up.

Is there a way to not record certain series, and in essence "pausing" their recording?

There are shows that I routinely watch and delete the next day which I do not necessarily want to remove from the Prioritizer but do not want them to record for 3 weeks.

Is there anything I can do there?

I don't think you can "pause" a SL. I looked though the manual and couldn't find anything.

You might have to delete the SL's or ensure you have enough space.

Sorry, maybe someone else has something. :grin:

You could set them to keep at most 1.

Thats what I was going to say. Just change how many you want the DVR to store and then you will be set.

That's a great idea. :)

Why the heck didn't I think of that. :rolleyes:

Or you could manually go through the todo list and delete the shows you don't want to record. Of course, this will only help for the first two weeks of your trip.

This sounds like something that should be added to the wish list! I think pausing a season pass is a great idea.:up:
