ARCHIVE THREAD: Old TiVo Programme Listings/Schedule Errors

Charmed, LivingTV (and +1) Thursday, 8/9pm.

According to the Recording History this episode, which is BRAND NEW, will not be recorded as "another showing is/was available". As this will be the very first showing on UK television, I think it's a safe bet that there is something wrong somewhere.

Can someone suggest a reason 'cos I'm at a loss :confused:

[mrtickle]

Remember that the Recording History in the TiVo UI is only created once, when the data first arrives, and is never updated when you add/remove other recordings. You could have created a manual recording for Saturday's repeat, or have had a cascading chain of other SPs with various priorities which meant that the Saturday repeat got entered into your ToDo list first. In this situation the reason given you're not recording the episode today would be true but not the only reason.

TiVoWeb's Recording History doesn't suffer from this problem. It also gives you a link to the "alternative showing" so that you can see exactly which one it means.

I hope you didn't place much money on your bet - the guide data is correct for the episode and its showings, so this isn't a guide data problem :)

One can't bet with money one hasn't got, old chap :D Besides, "not a Guide Data problem"? There's a first :eek: ;)

Episode is marked under the 28 day rule as the episode being shown ("Truth Takes Time") is what TiVo thought it recorded this week. However that episode was actually "A Dark Turn".

Problem:

No listings from 7am today, since this is about the only channel I watch for my money it's pretty awkward to use the TiVo without any listings!

I think that`s Motors fault for not supplying (reliable) data to Tribune.

Likewise with British Eurosport, I settled down to watch the last nights WRC showing, all I got was Tennis. :mad:

That wasn't Tribune's fault, the Welsh Open Snooker overran on Eurosport International delaying the Rally Highlights which meant British Eurosport had to rearrange the schedule to join Eurosport International for the Rally Highlights when the Snooker finished.

Whatever the reason, exactly the same thing has happened again this week. My ER SP has over-ridden the higher one for Charmed.

As you should have noticed before in this thread. Shceduling errors (and certainly with EurosportGB) are usually down to bad data from the channel and not Tribune.

Sure, Eurosport are completely rubbish at sticking to a schedule, but if you look at Toothy's post you'll see that Eurosport stuck to their schedule and gave out the correct information in this case. But only Digiguide bothered to update their listings :(

Tribune may not of been told of changes.

I occasionally get programme amendments from broadcasters than don't get to Digiguide or Tribune.

As this problem is going to affect everbybody who is not in Ireland so if I could plese urge as many of you as possible to report this one officially by calling Tivo CS on 0870 241 8486. Obviously, with so many repeats of earlier seasons on this show being on on a daily basis, a FROSP is absolutely essential for this show. :D

(Yeah, I know I could set up a repeating manual recording but that's defeating the object of the exercise isn't it ;))

I've just spoken to CS, and told them the problem. I got the impression the guy setup a season pass there and then on a real TiVo (not sure what I was expecting!) and he came across another problem I hadn't noticed, the 5pm showing, which is a repeat of the season finale from last year has an OAD of 5/2/2004 so will be picked up by a FRO SP.

So in summary, a FRO SP will pick up last years Season Finale, but not the new series :confused:

I'll leave it in their capable hands.

[bobnick]

Reported the Friends error - the guy mentioned it'd had been reported this morning, and I got the feeling only one report was going to be sent to Tribune.
He did tell me it would be fixed in time though!

[cwaring]

Steveroe.

Yeah. I forgot to mention that :D

[sjp]

we've been here before haven't we?

[bobones]

Can anyone explain why Now Showing is saying that I'm currently recording Ladyhawke on Channel 5, yet Live TV guide says that the film is actually the Goonies (and it's correct). What happened to Ladyhawke?

[bobnick]

we've been here before haven't we?
http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1670172#post1670172

[bobones]

Looks like the exact same scenario. It seems Ladyhawke has been removed from the guide after it had been put on my todo list, but the tdl was never updated to reflect the change.

[steveroe]

Now I know that adding an error to this thread is not the official way to get things fixed, but it is worth noting that Jim99 (from Tribune) is a bit conspicuous by his abscence of late (last post 22/10/2003).

I'd echo Carl's comments above about reporting these errors to Customer Services, and then posting them here for our info - but I wouldn't expect Tribune to act on anything only posted here...

[bobones]

Channel 5 seems to have been a disaster tonight. Every guide I've looked at (even Ch5's) says Batman and Robin started at 8.30pm. My tivo switched over at 8.28, but I've clearly missed a huge chunk of the film. Anyone know what time it actually started?

Edit: I can see from the freeview banner when my tivo switched over at 8.28 that the film actually started at 8.00pm. Seems the Freeview now & next EPG was updated, but nothing else. Difficult to blame tribune for this one.

[OzSat]

The Hutton Enquiry is causing lots of programme amendments for BBC-tv.

There are changes tonight and tomorrow - hopefully TiVo will have tomorrow's in time.

But there is no chance for tonight being correct - the only place that I can find correct is the Sky EPG. DTT EPG may be correct if you are lucky enough to be in the right area.

- Old and new episodes are not indentified as such, nor are repeats -- every episode is recorded regardless. New episodes also lack programme information or titles, making them impossible to identify.

The BBC are changing their minds a lot... at the end of last night's Newsnight, a "Top-up Fees Vote Special" was announced for 7pm tonight on BBC1. I didn't see any listings that confirmed that arrangement; however, following Nick Brown's flip-flop, which means that Blair is much less likely to be defeated, it's been moved to BBC2.

[gregh]

Friends info still seems screwed.

My Tivo is set to record:

The One in Barbados (1/2) 217 Thu 5th Feb 2004 E4 Thu 5th Feb 17:00

But then isn't recording :

The One in Barbados (2/2) 218 Wed 26th Nov 2003 E4 Thu 5th Feb 17:30

So something is wrong.

Weren't the last 2 episodes of the previous series based in Barbados?

Do I need to record both the above to get the new series?

cheers,

Greg

It is a little odd, isn't it :)

Anyway. Here's the thing. The eps at 5pm and 5:30 (also 8pm and 8:30pm) are repeats of the final two episodes of LAST season; nine.

Season ten starts at 9pm with "The One after Joey and Rachel Kiss".

Urgent error for tonight at 10.30pm ITV
TiVo listing for "For the Benefit of Mr Parris, Revisite" is 30mins late saying it will record it at 11.00pm
I know its too late for correction but just incase anyone wants it you will need to re book it for 10.30pm

Fur

[cwaring]

You must have a very odd Tivo as mine has always said shown 10:30pm for that programme.

Could it have been a regional difference. Your region might have been going to show it at 11pm but changed their minds? (I'm in YTV region.)

That's the only reason I can think of for the discrepency.

Channel: Paramount Comedy and Paramount Comedy 2

Has anyone noticed that the listings for the above channels seem to have gone completely to hell?

I have wishlists for Seinfeld and Frasier, and a few weeks ago, I started getting the odd episode with generic episode info.

Now, there are NO episode titles/descriptions at all for Seinfeld, or Frasier. Being that each episode is shown 3/4 times each day between these two channels, that is a lot of duplicate episodes.

On top of this, I come home and review the 3 Seinfelds it had recorded today.

1st one is The Cosbys, 2nd one is Happy Days, and the 3rd one is missing the start, despite TWO MINUTES early padding.

What the hell is going on with Paramount listings? Is this a Paramount problem, Tivo/Tribune, or a bit of both?

EDIT: OK, just checked DigiGuide, and they have not all, but a lot of episode info/titles for both Seinfeld and Frasier, so I guess Tribune are at least partly to blame.... maybe we can chip in together and get them a DigiGuide Subscription? ;P

Warren.

[bobnick]

Good idea! I'll chuck in a couple of quid, and perhaps we can get them a subscription to the Radio Times whilst we're at it!

[groovyclam]

There is a thread on the DigiGuide forums saying that the reason Paramount listings are so bad at the moment ( they are a bit wonky in DigiGuide too ) is that Paramount have stopped sending out update info and will not be doing so in the future.

So, note to Tribune: better become more active in checking for late Paramount changes from other sources e.g. http://www.paramountcomedy.co.uk/

[cwaring]

I'm not sure Tribune have the time or manpower to trawl other websites for info that the channel should provide. I'd complain to the channel directly :)

If you have a FROSP for "Charmed" that is higher than "Smallville" and/or "Enterprise", I'd check your TDL for this Monday.

A generic description and wrong OAD (1998) means that both the 8:05pm and 9:05pm (Living+1) episodes are being picked up, thus wiping out either "Enterprise" and/or "Smallville", depending on which you have an SP for.

[Adder]

Orphaned NASCAR shows:

Well the NASCAR season has arrived again and there are some shows orphaned from the main "NASCAR Racing" season pass, a second erroneous series seems to have been set up.

The "correct" SP for the actual races seems to have a series server ID of 738179.

The following show should be in the main "NASCAR Racing" season pass.

Platform: BSkyB UK

Time: 11/2 6.30pm-7.30pm
Channel: 420 NASN
Programme: "Budweiser Shootout Highlights Show"

Should be in "NASCAR Racing" with episode title of the above.

The second problem covers pre-race shows, last year we had a seperate series, albeit one not defined with isEpisode=True as might have been better, called "NASCAR Pre-Race" which picked up the pre-race shows, the Daytona 500 pre-race show seems to be it's own series and the Subway 400 seems to be in a different "NASCAR Racing" series ID.

Can we start a season pass, "NASCAR Pre-Race Show" to catch all of the pre-race shows please?

The two affected shows currently are:

Platform: BSkyB UK

Time: 15/2 5.00pm - 6.30pm
Channel: 420 NASN
Programme: "NASCAR Daytona 500 Pre-Race"

and

Time: 22/2 5.30pm - 6.00pm / repeated 23/2 8.30am - 9.00am
Channel: 420 NASN
Programme: "NASCAR Racing"

Many thanks.

Yep. OAD should be 05/11/03. However, although there is no episode title, there is a proper episode synopsis. My FROSP is still, correctly, picking it up.

Well, that's two of my recording's cut down in their prime.
ITV changed I'm a Celebrity from a one hour programme to an hour and a half, expanding it both ways by 15 minutes.
This delayed The Premiership by 10 minutes
(Hey, this is ITV where time is only a concept!).
Thus, I lost the last ten minutes of both progs.

The really annoying thing is that I'd actually looked at
http://www.radiotimes.com/content/schedule_updates/
earlier in the day, seen that I'm a Celebrity was starting at 9.00pm, checked the ToDo list which had the correct start time.
Sadly, I didn't register the fact that the end time was set at 10.15pm, rather than the correct 10.30pm.

I'm now recording the last half hour of Sunday Premiership repeat (Live TV? What's that?).

No listings for BBC skiing weather, which is on at a different time each week I think. Digiguide doesn't show it either, but the BBC website does!

Posting here as I know it's been logged at least one more time by someone other than me..

Finally I got annoyed enough to call Customer services and there looking into why Tivo thinks we get a new episode on the saturday when it's a repeat of the sunday show and consequently recorded the sunday show and the saturday repeat. Might be because of generic guide data the 28 day rule is not working or it may be the repeat is not flagged as such. Anyway time will tell

It should all be sorted out within a few days.

[warrenrb]

Out of interest Ozsat, do channels have an 'obligation' to provide listings information to services like Tivo/Tribune, or is it seen as a courtesy? Are there any kind of contracts involved?

I was just wondering, if a channel (like Paramount) fail to provide decent listings, do Tribune just shrug and say 'oh well, not our problem'.

I guess what I'm asking is, are Tribune only as good as the channels, so if the channels don't provide listings, then our payment is for nothing? We have no recourse via Tivo/Tribune?

For a couple of weeks now, my Tivo has failed badly in what it's meant to do (Get me Seinfeld and Frasier without me having know when they are on), and I'm kinda wondering who's to blame :) Not that it's gonna get me the programmes I missed.... :(

The Paramount thing was a technical issue at Paramount.

All listings services are "in the hands" of the channels.

The second problem covers pre-race shows, last year we had a seperate series, albeit one not defined with isEpisode=True as might have been better, called "NASCAR Pre-Race" which picked up the pre-race shows, the Daytona 500 pre-race show seems to be it's own series and the Subway 400 seems to be in a different "NASCAR Racing" series ID.

Can we start a season pass, "NASCAR Pre-Race Show" to catch all of the pre-race shows please?

The two affected shows currently are:

Platform: BSkyB UK

Time: 15/2 5.00pm - 6.30pm
Channel: 420 NASN
Programme: "NASCAR Daytona 500 Pre-Race"

and

Time: 22/2 5.30pm - 6.00pm / repeated 23/2 8.30am - 9.00am
Channel: 420 NASN
Programme: "NASCAR Racing"

Many thanks.

This second problem now encompasses more shows as it seems to have caught at least two showings of the "Subway 400 Highlights Show" so these are now in the wrong season pass as well!

There are now two different "NASCAR Racing" Series ID's on NASN! = Serious season pass headaches.

In regards to Paramount, how come Sky are getting it right but Tribune aren't? (as I can tell because the Sky banner disagrees with what TiVo is telling me).

[Toothy]

Just a heads up for any fans of Caroline Quentin. :)

A wishlist for Caroline Quentin doesn`t pick up her new drama series Life Begins, which is due to be broadcast Mon 16/2 9:00PM on ITV1.

Presumably because it doesn`t list her name in the episode description.

Of course, Digiguide has the correct listings. ;)

BBC1, Sundays at 8pm.

Looks like there's a mix up in the series id or something. I've managed to set up TWO season passes for this series. My original one picks up the episode 'Unfinished Business' for NEXT week.
My new SP, for the same channel and time picks up the episode 'First Love' that's showing tonight.

Check which SP you have / are missing.

Can we please have some decent series linkage and program descriptions please on this channel I'm fed up with having to weed through my todo list deleting multiple scheduled recordings of the same program.

Granted some of this is due to there being no description at all with some programs! However some of them have the same description but there doesn't even appear to be a vauge attempt to create proper season pass.

You will need to contact MotorsTV and ask them to provide better listings: contact@motorstv.com.

This sort of thing has been mentioned before. You do read this thread, don't you? :D

[mini__me]

Well I did a search in this thread, there is a problem with no listings at all, and some problems with recordings not being what the guide data says they are due to overruns.

However I fail to see why a season pass cant be setup if I can tell from program descriptions that it's the same program. eg Round 3 from xxxx

Also Digiguide and Sky seems to do pretty well with the listings for that channel so they must get their info from somewhere!

I'm currently getting a billion "season review" recordings that are just reviews of the last seasons racing on my season passes. They are all the same show with the same description so why is my season pass trying to record every single one.

Granted I could use sandertons app to see if it's already been recorded but I shouldn't have to! That sort of thing should be sorted out prior to the data being loaded on my tivo.

[bobnick]

Well indeed, I'm really fed up with the blame being passed on to the orginal channels. Granted, there may be a couple who downright refuse to co-operate with Tribune or supply completely dud data; but in most cases Digiguide et al have the correct details.
Tribune know fine well how many episodes of American Idol are made each week - yet they spend so little time on our British listings that my Tivo records every repeat showing. Even a cursory glance from anyone at Tribune would flag up the error - We're paying nearly 50% more than the Americans, yet get a far worse service :( :(

Why are valuable resources being wasted adding channels like TUInfo which appeared today; it's a rolling preview for Top Up TV - who on earth would want to record this? Typing in 26 takes freeview viewers to the channel even without the channel data. I'd much rather that the time wasted getting this channel added went into getting the listings correct on the main channels.

Have you ever considered that channel data and programme listings are done by different departments? Also, this type of channel has no schedule and so takes no maintainance.

Also, before I had TUINFO added - typing 26 would always take me to an RF channel - even though it wasn't selected.

btw: I have more interest in recording a TopUp promo than I would recording anything on Motors - I don't even have Motors selected.

But I do agree that, where data is provided, it should be used.

Obviously not a motor sport fan then :)

Motors TV is IMHO the best channel on Sky, it's completely FTA, so you can get it without a FTV card. And shows most of the racing that you would pay a premium for on sky sports. Ok so the bitrates a bit low and the commentators leave a bit to be desired sometimes but it's free!!

Obviously I appreciate that different people look after different things, but all the resources come from the 19 dollars Tivo Inc receive from us each month.
I imagine that the Tivo bosses can't comprehend how poor our data is here in the UK, as surely they would spend 5 minutes setting up Vic and Bob's new series correctly rather than a top up tv test transmission channel. I know which would help the average Tivo user the most.

As I leave more than my fair share of blood on the TiVo UK forum ceiling, I usually leave it to bobnick to fight the good fight for the customer and to ensure TiVo/Tribune are not given a 'get out of jail free card' for deficiencies in the EPG.

However, I do not feel so constrained in the TiVo Coffee House - TiVo Discussion Forum. While recently getting involved in a debate as to who to blame for bad guide data, I read an interesting observation from hdeditor:

<hdeditor post>
It's not all the content provider's fault. I'm an editor at a TV station, and the person in charge of providing program listings is also a TiVo owner, and we are *both* amazed at how the program info gets lost or changed once it leaves our station!

It certainly does seem that the readers of this particular thread are no longer allowed to criticise the people who we are paying good money to provide a service.

While the BBC, ITV and Men & Motors may sometimes be to blame for guide data problems, it's not them I am paying money money (and it is quite a lot of money for such a simple service) for guide data. It is up to Tivo to sort out the problem. They are the people to complain to, and criticism should be allowed in this thread...otherwise this thread is pointless.

The main problem with things not getting fixed is that people will whine in these forums - but are not preparred to report the problem to TiVo.

I'm sure if enough people want a particular issue fixed - and are willing to actually 'phone CS (or write) and say so - then it will be dealt with.

Remember, this thread is not an official reporting system!

I have found that reporting things in the right way to TiVo - usally gives the right results!

Also, remember that it is really down to TiVo to sort out the problems - even though Tribune are the people to do the work. It is TiVo's job to chase Tribune.

We pay TiVo - not Tribune!

To be strictly accurate, this thread is really for the reporting of errors :) However, I too like the discussions on the subject.

Also, don't forget that this is not the official way of reporting scheduling errors. I know this thread used to be monitored and, although Jim99 seems to have stopped posting, it may well still be. However, I assume that errors should still be reported the official way (via Tivo CS) or they may not even get looked into :)

(The above is all my opinion. I have no authority to state anything as fact :))

(* of course, if he does know I'll be more than a little :o :o :o )

[csansbury]

Looking back, it's certainly quite regularly frowned upon. When people complain about data problems STILL not being fixed, the complainant is told (often rather abruptly) that it is the fault of the TV stations. Perhaps I should have worded my point differently.

Remember, this thread is not an official reporting system!
We pay TiVo - not Tribune

Like I said in my post, complain to Tivo

To be strictly accurate, this thread is really for the reporting of errors

But when we do, we are criticised for reporting it to the wrong people

...for such a simple service...

You misread my post Carl, :rolleyes: I am not saying I am an expert in the process. I am saying that it is a lot of money for such a simple service. While I am aware that there are other costs for Tivo, Digiguide do a very similar task, more accurately by many accounts, for a great deal less money. I am willing to pay this money, but I expect a good service.


My criticism is not of moderators of this forum. This is the best run forum I have ever taken part on. You guys all do a good job. Perhaps, however, we SHOULD be getting annoyed with Tivo, and not allowing the buck to be passed to the TV stations or whoever. We deserve a better service because we pay for a better service. When somebody reports yet another error, we all be getting together to say "this is not on!"

It is not our job to preserve the good name of Tivo. I love it...but it could be better!

[cwaring]

Originally posted by csansbury

No. Personally, I have never criticised anyone for reporting errors in this thread. What I have done is remind them that the 'officiall' way is to call Tivo CS and, when they repeat the same error a few days later with an added "THIS HAS NOT YET BEEN FIXED!!!"-type comment, I will politely ask them if they actualy did report it to Tivo CS and also point out that it takes more than a couple of days for any 'fixes' to arrive on our Tivos even after it has been fixed.

I am saying that it is a lot of money for such a simple service.
Actually, I thought that that was exactly what you meant :)
What I was getting at is that I don't think it is a "simple" service. It may sound like it is... "get data from suppliers and put it in database", but I'm fairly confident that it is not really that simple a process :) (I await being proved wrong :D)

I don't disagree with your other points ;)

[csansbury]

Sorry Carl, I could argue about the differences between a service and a process, but this is simply missing my point.

You seem to have taken this personally. I wasn't pointing any fingers, but I am sorry if it has come accross as such. My point is simply this; Tivo's listing services are not up to scratch for many channels, and we should be getting together to push them to make it better.

I don't think this thread is full of people whining, but neither are people generally 'frowned upon' when the complain here. The trouble is is that is expensive and and a major hassle to ring up Tivo CS here in the UK. We have so many errors, I've simply lost the will to ring up anymore.
In the US, there's a tiny amount of listing errors and a freephone CS number. Indeed, I don't even think there's an american equivalent of this thread.
In the UK, we pay nearly 50% more for our service and have have to pay for our CS phonecalls (at national rate). That costs me 15p a minute. And as the first thing the CS reps do when I report a listing error is try and get me to check my daily downloads are working, it takes a while to get the problem across. I'm lucky if it only costs me 50p a go.
There should be some online procedure where we can report errors - or even better, we should be able to hit the thumbs down button on listings that are incorrect in the TV guide so that the feedback can be uploaded back to Tivo.

If you look back through this thread (and its archive) - they are quite a few errors reported that are down to people not having the latest download. There are also a few errors reported which are actual user errors.

Having a 'flag' to show a programme has a problem - is going to take a bit of time to first find whether there really is a problem - and what it should be.

If people are going to report errors - they'll need to provide correction details.

Of cause, this wouldn't apply to missing data.

<Anorak Mode>
If you are comparing a land-line cost with a mobile cost you have not got enough information to say that bobnick is using the most expensive way.

For example, you have not included the line-rental in your equation. For a low volume user using a pay-as-you-go mobile may be the cheapest way to make calls. There are other circumstances in which a mobile may be the cheapest method (the most exotic I can think of is - you are staying in a hotel, noticed an error using TiVo-web, want to correct the problem before you get home and want to avoid the high charges that some hotels add for phone-calls) .

What is for certain, if somebody is using a pay-as-you-go mobile, they usually have a better knowledge of the true cost of a call than somebody using a land-line,
</Anorak Mode>

[bobnick]

Oh dear, this thread is becoming quite bizzare! To clear up the confusion once and for all (so we can go back to moaning about guide data - I missed the BBC local news again this lunchtime despite having two season passes):

Yes, I'm using a mobile. Tivo has a premium number; it doesn't come out of any inclusive minutes on a mobile, nor is it included in BT Together or Telewest flat rate deals.
As everyone is so interested (!) I don't have a landline - I don't need one. I have broadband for internet access and tivo listings, and use my mobile to talk to people. My friends have mobile phones too, so the calls are cheaper than if I had a land line.
So I'm not being difficult by choosing to call Tivo on my mobile - it's the only option I have or need. Or are you suggesting that I pay 10 quid a month for listings, and 10 pounds a month for a land line so I call to report all the data errors?
Perhaps Tivo should have a freephone number for guide data errors, like Tivo America has for customer services.

Carl: You want to provide corrections for Tivo and come up with a human interface - for free ;) Perhaps we could have 4 thumbs down to show an error? something similar to the restart shortcuts perhaps?

Okay. My line-rental is £10 pm. Most mobile contracts *start* at around £15 don't they? If so, I'm *still* paying less than bobnick :D:D

Besides, I wouldn't include it in any equation as it is irrelevant. You have to pay it whether you make one call or 1000 :)

Err, no! My line rental is 10 quid a month, and gets me a 150 quid phone for free each year. Freefone calls are free, landline calls are 2p a minute, and calls to Tivo in the US cost me 3p a minute. Calls to rip-off 0870 national rate numbers cost me a lot more! I reported 3 errors today and it took 6 minutes exactly. Why should I have to pay to tell Tivo where it's gone wrong? E-mails are far more efficient.

Anyhow, I'm very interested to see how many of these 3 errors will be fixed and how long it will take. I'll report back...

[pgogborn]

It is about 4 months since Jim99 has posted.

Perhaps he is no longer at Tribune. I wonder if it would be appropriate for one of the mods to pm him to see if he can put them into the picture.

If there is no reply perhaps they can see if Tribune is willing to give somebody else the task of monitoring the thread or if an address for direct email submissions can be set up.

[OzSat]

Jim99 is most definitely alive and kicking at Tribune and I can confirm that Tribune are still aware of this thread.

However, I can't commit to saying that they monitor this thread daily - as it is not an official thread - and could be seen as making it official if they did say it was checked daily.

But they do take note of error reports - and do attempt to fix those which can be rectified in time for transmissions.

[Jim99]

Hey there!

Still alive and kicking...although I haven't been checking the forum on a daily basis others at Tribune have been.

Thanks,

TiVo listings have already been amended for this late change - and are correct here.

Sky are often slow in advising of these changes - even though they are in their EPG.

Yes, this had the same data as the previous week's episode, so it looked to TiVo like a repeat.
I noticed it's non-appearance in the ToDo list, so I added it from the Record This Also option.
Sorry I didn't post a note here about it :( but this happens so often that I give the ToDo list a look on a regular basis.

Anyway, the same episode airs on Thurday evenings at 21:00 & 23:30 on E4, and at 22:00 & 00:30 on E4+1. Tivo has completely the wrong episode listed for the late showings (23:30 on E4, 00:30 on E4+1). The epsidoe on Tivos' EPG is from 1995! Due to clashes with other shows, I want the SP to pick up the 00:30 showing on E4+1, but this just wont happen with such a way off listing.

This should be in the series "IRL Racing" this means that people's season passes from previous years will not work if it is left this way. :(

Have also discovered the following:

Platform: BSkyB UK
Channel: 403 Sky Sports 3 and other Sky Sports channel on repeat showings
First showing: 29 Feb 18:00

Title: "Auto Racing"

This programme and its repeats on any Sky Sports channel (1, 2, 3, Extra) should also be in the series "IRL Racing" created last year.

AND!

Platform: BSkyB UK
Channel: 412 EUROGB
First showing: 3 Mar 00:15

Title: "Auto Racing"

This should also be in the series "IRL Racing".

So currently none of my SIX different "IRL Racing" season pases would pick up any showings of the race. (Sky Sports 1, 2, 3, Extra, British Eurosport, FIVE)

Can we have a fix before the weekend?

Pretty please? :confused:

I would like to second BlindLemon's comments, and reiterate my annoyance at Paramount Listings.

As of 1 March, Seinfeld and Frasier both revert to generic descriptions. It had got pretty good for the last two or so weeks.

The episodes on Saturday on BBC2 are repeats of the episode which aired the previous Tuesday on BBC1.
Currently if you have SPs on both channel you will get duplcates being recorded.

Also there is still no Episodic data for the BBC3 episodes so both TV and radio have the same description currently. BBC2 provided good data, perhaps someone inside BBC3 is the problem?

[bobnick]

Hi all,
I reported a problem with Live At Johnny's on BBC3 with Tivo CS over a week ago (Tivo records every repeat showing) and it still hasn't been fixed. As such, I'm fed up (for the time being at least) of reporting all the errors I find to Tivo - why should I bother to waste my time and cash? So here's a quick head's up for us community members:

American Idol - Friday's new episodes won't tape, and Sunday has the wrong description (it's for a future show - so the future show probably won't work either)
Harry Hill - Each and every repeated showing on ITV1 is being recorded.
BBC 1 Local London news - Every show each Monday is excluded from the normal season pass - it still happens every week.

hope this is of help!

[cwaring]

Just a 'heads-up' for those with a SP.

Looks like Bravo are showing "Empty Quiver" (http://www.tvtome.com/7Days/season3.html#ep60) after all and not a repeat of "Delores Demands" as per the EPG (and DG as it happens :)).

You have three more chances to get it: 3:40pm, 7pm & 8pm :D

Actually there should be two - you wouldn't expect Little Britain the TV series to have the same ID as Little Britain the radio series,

The problem (apart from the lack of episode data of course) seems to be that the two earlier radio episodes are wrongly on the TV series' ID.

Well, there is no reason why they can't share the same series ID - after all, a Season Pass on radio 4 won't record episodes on BBC2 because SPs are channel-specific. The same happens with many other series that happily share radio/TV SPs without problems - Yes Minister, League of Gentlemen. This is Tribune's current system (barring rogue SPs) and I like it. The other advantage is that when viewing "upcoming episodes" you can be alerted to the other "version" of a programme that you might want to record, and set an Sp on that channel for it. Just as now you can find out about the UK G2 showings of Have I Got News For You when you spot them in the BBC2 SP for that programme.

In this case there was originally a BBC3 SP then a BBC2 SP was wrongly added, then some episodes on BBC3 appeared in the new imposter SP so if you only set the BBC3 SP you'd miss them, then the radio episodes were added to first one then the other, and it's all a big mess. Far better to have fewer SPs!

Because it's so annoying when these rogue SPs are added and they are so hard to spot unless you are VERY vigilant - they don't appear in the Recording History - I think we should be aiming for fewer SPs where possible.

[EddyC]

Is there any likelyhood of Tribune starting to carry either RTE Radio 1, TV3 or TG4 listings? These are all available to Northern Ireland terrestial viewers, along with Sky Digital viewers, and the schedules tend to be fairly fixed.

Digiguide are happy to list TV3/TG4 listings so I presume the information is easily available. (While I'm able to setup manual recordings for any items of interest, I have several older relatives with Tivos who find this rather daunting!) so it would be very convenient... (TV3IRL / TG4 in the Tivo guide.)

I think they are different series so should have different ids. But I take your point that it makes little practical difference.

not a listing error as such but just in case anybody who's subscribed and is having the same grief as i'm having (though they may not realise it)...

my The O.C. wishlist is not picking up any hits even though it's in the data. i always thought that punctuation was translated into spaces but no matter what combination spaces/asterisks/whatever i cannot get a wishlist to pick the programme up.

heads up over, i now leave the floor open to the many working examples of how to get a working wishlist for "The O.C." :)

[groovyclam]

Does "The OC " ( note: space after C and nothing between O and C ) work as a title wishlist ?

Failing that, you could make season passes for all the channels it appears on and TiVo will remove duplicates from the to-do list.

[sjp]

nope, "the<sp>oc<sp>" doesn't work either, didn't try it without the quotes though.

i kinda guess it might not have been a bad idea to actually state when the first airing is... Sunday 6:30pm C4 :o

Are you sure it's not because your Tivo has a programme clash with a higher-priority SP?

I only ask as mine is set to record okay and I have a FROSP.

Last week's was "Maris Returns" and this week's is "Murder Most Maris". Certainly not the same ep!

(FYI, last call-in was yesterday @ 11:48pm)

Incidently, don't forget the extra episode @ 12:30pm tomorrow (Monday) which is a repeat of the one shown two weeks-ago on Wednesday; the one where the sound went of towards the end. It's in the EPG :)

It would be nice to see the 'Smackdown' screenings use the 'Late Night' title to show the difference between the 'Late Night' and 'family' versions. And the the other WWE programmes in fact.

Re: Wrestling Channel

Because they operate a 'new material 9pm-midnight, repeats at all other times' system, they won't be in full swing of the schedule until Sunday. (At which point every show will have had a premiere, which in turn allows all the repeat slots to be filled to schedule).

Does this mean Tivo will be carrying listings from Sunday? (Even if episode details are not available, programme titles should be possible as they have a fixed schedule).

It is a better system to find 30 minutes of news in the middle of your programme - rather than only half a programme.

Also, please include the date in error reports.

Postcode - ML8
Platform - Freeview
Channel - Five
Programme Name: Fifth Gear
Time/Date of airing: Wed 12/3 2003 onwards

a) Didn't this programme used to be called "5th Gear"? Channel 5 web site appears to agree; search for "5th Gear" returns repeats on Discovery Home & Leisure & search for "Fifth Gear" returns new series on Five.
So Season Passes for "5th Gear" presumably won't get "Fifth Gear"?

b) The title is appearing as e.g. "Fifth Gear: The Ultimate Crash Test" and "Fifth Gear: The Ultimate Menace - Snoozers or Boozers", so a Season Pass won't get them! I've had to use a Wishlist!

Posted 03-07-2003 05:59 PM It looks like there is a new series starting, on Mon 29/3 8:30pm on Five, and the program name has reverted to 5th Gear.

Just a warning to anyone who changed the season pass to catch the last series!!

The 1pm programme is 'BBC News; Weather'.

The regional news should be the same for the week using the Tue-Fri title - but really it would be nice for the correct regional programme names.

Only recordable in single episodes.

Only know this I know one of the guys (Pete Cardy) who drinks like a fish, can spout complete "bollards" and is likely to have caused an international incident after a drink or two.

[dermiestv]

Ozsat has guided me over here for the following request.

For Tivo users in Ireland, Northern and Republic versions, the programme guide provides data on two of the 4 national Irish terrestrial channels, RTE 1 and Network 2.

TV3 and TG4 are listed as channels in the Guide but no programme guide data is provided.

These channels are all available on Sky Digital (Ireland) with the full EGP data.

Any chance that this data for TV3 and TG4 could be ported over to Tivo's Programme Guide?

thanks

A FRO SP is picking up the numerous repeats now airing (and listed in TiVo EPG with an OAD of x/x/2002). I'm confused as to why programmes originally aired in 2002 being picked up with a FRO SP? :confused:

There are presently no new episodes of Stargate SG-1 being shown on Sky One, so I would expect the SP to sit there dormant, waiting for the situation to change...

Problem - No listings

The Wrestling Channel has been broadcasting for two weeks now and has completed a full week of broadcasting to it's standard schedule (the first week had an abnormal schedule due to not being able to repeat programming that hadn't had a first showing yet).

The schedule followed last week was the one published on their website at http://www.thewrestlingchannel.tv/schedule.html .

This schedule was only incorrect in a couple of places firstly 3PW could not be repeated before the watershed last week and had to be withdrawn for compliance from these slots and on Saturday night a techinical issue meant the schedule ran about 15 minutes late.

Is it possible to have the schedule on TiVo now?

Many thanks in advance.

Out of 30+ eps on Sky On/C4, my Tivo is currently picking up only 5. Of those five, there is only "Forsaken" that is an actual FRO error!

The other four are being picked up because Tribune does not have details of which episodes are going to be shown and therefore are using the generic programme description. This is because Sky supposedly don't know which ones will win the weekly "vote".

Therefore these cannot, IMO, be classed as 'errors'. A problem, yes; an error, no. :)

Er... okay. I'll accept that. I just got a bit concerned as over the last 2/3 weeks (since the last new series finished) TiVo's recorded one old episode per week under a FRO SP. I wasn't aware of Sky's "weekly vote" - that's the 'trouble' with Tivo :D

How about...

No more are being filmed, but they're still in the middle of transmitting the last series.

Everyone is desperate to watch series 10 episodes on a Friday night, but don't care for the old episodes which are shown daily.

Welcome to the world of listing complaints!

[sanderton]

Is this the "OAD set for the RTE showing" problem?

[bobnick]

Yes. It was 'broken' for the first couple of episodes, then fixed for the next few. But it then went back to RTE dates.

It's a foreign channel, and you would have thought it was worth getting it right for 99% of Tivo users by setting the OAD to E4's. Not really worth going to the effort of getting it sorted now that the series is coming to an end.
I'd rather just get some data into the Harry Hill or House Doctor programmes...
