HUMAX PVR - inaccurate recording starts.

Anyone else with a Humax 9200T PVR notice that if you set "Series Link"
(SL)it fails to use "Accurate Record" (AR) to start a recording?

We were away in Sheffield last week and the week before for several
days, and recorded a lot of stuff.  Watching it all it seems, from the
small number of recordings, that two conclusions can be inferred:
1. BBC1, BBC2 and itv1 programmes which have been selected from Series
Link always start late.  At least 10 - 15 secs into the programme start
at a guess.  Not knowing how the programme starts makes estimates difficult.
2. BBC1, BBC2 and itv programmes without Series Link set start correctly
at the ad or trail break before programme start.
3. Channel 4, with series link set recordings start correctly at the ad
break before the programme.  Too few Ch. 4 programmes recorded to decide
if this was a fluke or a correct action.
)All with Accurate Record set on the Humax.)

Now as the Humax should be checking Event Information Table
present/following (EITpf)(or Now & Next) every 30 seconds, it looks like
SL is switching off AR.

It would be useful when I email Humax with this apparent problem if I
could quote others who experience it too.  Also do other PVRs, like the
Topfield, suffer this ?
