Whilst checking various "automatic" clock changes around the house etc I discovered on my Sky Plus box, that all the "series links" in the Sky Planner were 1 hour earlier than the published programme time! However the time in the programme information banner had adjusted itself to gmt + 1hr, so the receiver clock was correct and had updated @ 0200hrs.
I don't know whether the unit is intelligent for instance enough to work out that Time Team listed as a series recording from last week required recording @ 1745hrs, not 1645 as in the Planner! I should also add that the time automatically entered after last week's recording was correct @ 1745! I had around half a dozen "series" recordings spread over next week, all 1 hour early! It looks as if the software added 1 hour to the receiver clock, but ignored anything else in the "Planner memory".
I wasn't going to chance it so zapped all recording requests and started again. Obviously a general gremlin as opposed to a "one off miscalculation". I would suggest anyone who uses the "series" facility on the Sky Plus, (HD may the same), checks their planner ASAP.
