Show is simulcast on two stations. How to record only one

[Jay_Moon]

Local news from our CBS affiliate is simulcast on our ABC affiliate as well and when setting up a pass, I can't seem to find the right filter in the advanced settings to only record the CBS channel.

In the guide (and schedule for a series pass) it shows BOTH channel numbers for every entry, and the only possible identifier I can see is their network affiliation where one is CBS and one is ABC.

I would like to filter out the secondary recordings from the ABC channel and just record the CBS channel but I cannot seem to find the correct filter (if possible) to accomplish this.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Advanced pass.
Channel =

Channels will only record one of them. It will make the decision on which channel to record from based on these things:

1. the priority of your source in your list of sources
2. Favorited status of a channel on your Channels DVR Server
3. Whichever source it can (fallback)

While it will show that it's scheduled across multiple channels, it will not record from multiple channels. These are just the places it could possibly record from and the decision on where is made at the time of recording.

That being said, the suggestion from @jagrim is correct. You can edit your pass to force the channel number you want it to always record from. But when doing this, if that channel's source is over utilized, it will not fallback to another source to record from.
