Uses for "program" and "series" numbers?

I did a search and didn't find any previous mention of this, so I'm guessing nobody's found it yet?

Pressing the clear button on the program information screen displays two numbers labeled "program" and "series" tacked on at the end of the description. (by program info screen I mean the screen you are taken to when you select a program in Now Showing)

I assume this is how the unit keeps track of whether or not it has a copy of a certain episode already on disk.

I guess I'm left wondering why the thumbs up/down ratings I've given to movies still appear on TV shows of the same name.

You didn't do a very good search did you? http://www.avsforum.com/ubb/wink.gif

grrrr... I had to reload the search page, and probably forgot to re-select which forum to search. *sigh*

Thanks for the link.
