    Yes they do. Or at least Humax do - can't vouch for the others.
  • It is part of the Freeview+ spec - so look for that on the PVR spec.

    On the Topfield PVRs if you press record for a programme that is part of a series, you are asked if you wish to record the single programme or the whole series.

    I have the Humax 9150 which allows series selection, same as the Topfileld. Brilliant - one of the best items I've ever bought. Got direct from Humax £80 - I think it was factory refurb but has guarantee so very good buy.

    And all the clever stuff such as 30-min rewind of live tv? Which also means if you forget to record something you can record it as long as you're not 1/2 an hour late? (and you get the whole show recorded)

    £80 from Humax Direct "manager specials":

    What are "Manager Specials"?

    These products are either older models we are attempting to clear from stock, or "Grade A" ("Grade A" units are marked with the suffix -G or -GSP at the end of the part code). Grade A's are predominantly store returns that have been tested and where appropriate repaired to an "as new" standard in our own service centre or factory. They come fully boxed with all accessories and full instructions and are all backed up by a complete 1 year on site warranty.

    Generally these units are on the latest software version but this cannot be guaranteed so free software updates are available via 'Over the Air' transmissions (when available) and at our support website at https://www.humaxdigital.com/hcsa.
  • It does say Grade A next to the description on the link
    Mortgage Free as of 31/5/11 :j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    £80 from Humax Direct, doesn`t say refurb assuming it`s new.

    It says Grade A which is refurbished.
