I apologize if this has been covered before, and I'm sure it probably has, but try as I might, I couldn't find the right search terms to find previous discussions.
I'm brand new to using a Tivo and setup three different season passes last night and specified the record "New Only" option. Two of them, one for "The Daily Show" and another for "The Colbert Report" seem to act differently that the third one that was setup for "NCIS".
The "NCIS" SP seems to act as I would expect. It seems like it will only record a show if the "New" bit is set and "New" appears next to the title in the guide. I say this because I don't see anything in the "To Do List" for NCIS even though there is a rerun set to air on 6/3.
The other two SP's seem to treat new as if it means "new to this device". They are recording shows that do not display "New" next to the title in the guide, and do not appear to have the "New" bit set. The episodes that it is recording clearly have an "Aired date" in the past (e.g. 5/14/2014). But while it is recording episodes that are clearly not new, it is not recording repeats which are easily identified by the guests that are interviewed as well as the season and episode numbers.
So does the Tivo treat "New Only" differently depending on the type of show (e.g. drama versus talk show)?
