hi @MiniEggs1999 

 

Unfortunatly the method used on SKY Q is not great. 

 

The Series linked icon & Record icon only show on the next programme in the link to be scheduled. 

It does not show on all the programmes within the EPG Window (i.e. the next week)  that will be linked (unlike my Freeview recorder which shows alll programmes linked in the next week)

When a programme begins to record then the record & Series linked icons will show on the next programme 

 

I think many people do think that the F1 links include too many programmes and should not include some of the periphery programmes & not the highlights.

 

Typically, off the top of my head the F1 links include the following

Drivers Press Conference,

Team principal's Press Conference,

Practice 1,

Practice 2,

The F1 show,

Practice 3,

Qualifying,

Ted's Qualifying notebook *,

Raceday buildup, 

The Race,

The Post Race wind up aka Chequered Flag,

Ted's Race Notebook *

& finally Race Highlights 

 

* only when Ted is at the race - In previous years this was on a separate Link and did seem a little more suceptable to be being set wrong.

 

Yes more recently (I think) they have started  Paddock Uncut, although I don't think it is at every race,  which is included in the link 

 

Note I think some people delete some recordings they don;t want before they are recorded and end up breaking the link.

it is best to just let them record and delete once recording is complete without watching
