masterchef not downloading with pvr scheduler

user-21

today I have noticed that masterchef is not downloading in the pvr scheduler, despite masterchef actually being in the tv.cache. Some other programs have downloaded.

Code:
798|tv|MasterChef: The Professionals: Series 10|b09fg34w|2017-11-07T20:00:00+00:00|1512676800|Episode 1|10|1|default|3600|Six chefs face two daunting challenges - at the end of which, three are sent home.|BBC Two|||1510091170||http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09fg34w|

the PVR is
Code:
Channel BBC One,BBC Two,BBC Three,BBC Four,CBBC,
exclude series 1, series 2, series 3, series 4, series 5, series 6
fields name
modes worse
output F:\Media\Television
subtitles 0
thumb 0
type tv
versionlist default
search0 ^Masterchef\: The Professionals
fileprefix <nameshort> <.senum> <.episodeshort> <.pid> <.channel>

if I run get_iplayer masterchef I get this

Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer>get_iplayer masterchef
Matches:
798:    tv, MasterChef: The Professionals: Series 10 - Episode 1, BBC Two, b09fg34w
INFO: 1 matching programmes

it does download manually using the id number

Also when I ran it this morning 35 TV programs were added but no radio shows were added

I am on version 3.06, in windows 10

OK, I tried a new pvr for just masterchef and it found it.
Code:
Channel BBC One,BBC Two,BBC Three,BBC Four,CBBC,
fields name
modes worse
output F:\Media\Television
subtitles 0
thumb 0
type tv
versionlist default
search0 ^MasterChef
fileprefix <nameshort> <.senum> <.episodeshort> <.pid> <.channel>

the only difference I can see is the the line
Code:
search0 ^MasterChef\: The Professionals

has the way the ":" is dealt with in the PVR changed?

No

Then have you any idea why the pvr is not picked up by the scheduler. The last series worked fine.

user-2

No. Works fine here, and there is no way to diagnose from the information provided. Perhaps you had trailing whitespace in your search string.

user-21

ok I figured it out. I have exclude series 1 in the exclude section and it is series 10 so it is picking that up

is there a way to exclude things specifically so it does not make that mistake again?
would putting it in quotes work?

user-2

No. You'll need to formulate a regular expression that excludes series 1 but not future series. Still, how likely is it that series 1 will be rebroadcast?

user-21

yes I have removed it from the exclude now.
do I mark as solved or do you
