If you:
You can add a filter (called a Blocking Pattern) to the Todo List which will automatically cancel recording the rebroadcasts. Here's how:
- In TivoWebPlus, go to the /todo page and then click the "Title Blocklists and Blocking Patterns" link (/gbl_edit).
- In the right pane, add "Countdown+!17" -- that means "don't record anything named 'Countdown' if it doesn't start at 5:00 pm". Readers in time zones other than Pacific should alter the time accordingly, e.g. "Countdown+!20" for Eastern time.
- Click "Save Changes" and you're done.
I hope this helps someone. I'm very pleased to no longer have to manually delete the rebroadcasts from my Playlist and Todo list.
