I've got season passes to Mad TV and SNL, both of which are scheduled to record this coming Saturday night. Mad TV records 11pm - 12midnight, and SNL records 11:30 pm - 1am.
Coming up this Saturday night is ESPN Classics "Top 25 Knockouts", 8pm - 12midnight. I found it in the guide and pushed the record button. Of course about 7 seconds later it comes back and says that I already have two things scheduled to record at that same time, but it then says, "Will not record: Mad TV 10pm - 11pm, overlaps with SNL 10:30pm - 12am". As you can see, the times are off by an hour.
Can anyone else confirm this, or another situation like this?

Not surprising. Tivo software is a nightmare. I am sure they get the offset information from multiple functions instead of a single function. The ones relating to making sure crap gets recorded were probably their priority and the other ones are probably lost in mounds of unreadable spaghetti code never to be fixed.

Yeah, I have the same problem. All the times look correct until you get to the confirmation screens, and there the times are all one hour behind. It doesn't seem to affect the actual recordings though (so far as I can see), so I guess it's not a big deal.
Like Tivo says, it's "cosmetic". :)
Heh I just noticed this today when I was setting something up to record. Even though the show was at 8pm, the Tivo on the confirmation screen said it was at 7pm.
Again, looks more of an annoyance than a problem.
