Suggestions troubles

Does anyone know why my BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 suggestion recordings are always taken from the Audio Description version of the channel?

Re: Suggestions troubles

It makes no difference, unless you have Audio Description switched on

Re: Suggestions troubles

Can you get an audio description on a non ad channel? Is Tivo recording the ad version so that the option is there for those that will want it?

Most of the popular channels have AD. The only reason there are special "AD" versions of channels 1 to 5 is that all the regional variants don't have AD. The "AD" ones are actually just copies of the London variants.

I'd like to say yes, but I suspect it's simply picking the highest numbered one.
