Newbie questions

ExLocateTVUser wrote 9 years ago: 1

Hi, ex-LocateTV user here, I've just found TVMaze.

Basic question but how do I make it remember to display only UK TV shows please?

In the Schedule I can click on the UK flag underneath, but it doesn't seem to save that preference.

Also I only have Freeview, how do I set it up so that when I Follow a show, it only comes up in my Calendar when a new series of the show is coming back on Freeview? It'll show it on eg Fox, but I don't have Fox, I only want to know when it's on Freeview.

Thank you.

Underneath every show logo is a green box with a white heart in it. Click that heart and it'll turn yellow.
You are now following that particular show.

Click on your calendar tab and set it to show only the shows you are following from the drop down box near the top right.
You will now only see on your calendar shows you are following.

As for when a show that's previously aired showing elsewhere, you cannot do this on TV Maze, sorry.
TV Maze only tracks the premiere global showing of episodes, not re-runs.

We aren't a streaming site or service, I'd recommend checking out catch-up services for any of the channels that air any of the programmes you are wanting to watch.

Thanks very much for the explanation Tony. Sorry for the delay in replying, I was away.
