Incorrect Listing Info, Causing multiple Recordings

[miadlor]

Mind of Mencia has incorrect information about each show and is causing TiVo to record all episodes.

Same show title, show description, and original air date.

Going to connect to see if there's been an update to the guide.

Comedy Central is infamous for providing near-useless guide data, especially for The Daily Show and now The Colbert Report. There's not much TiVo can do about it.

Never had a problem with this show until this week.

Comedy central seems to have their act together for a few weeks in providing good guide data....then they drop the ball.

Right now for Colbert & Stewart, I think I'm getting good description data for the first airings of the show (ie 11&11:30), which Tivo records....some of the repeats on the next day have the generic description data, so Tivo records those as well.

Funny you should mention TDS and Colbert. I'm guessing they're on reruns all next week because my To-Do List has just about every single scheduled airing of both shows for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. All of them are listed with generic guide data (first aired 1/11/99 for TDS), for example. Even though these are my two lowest-priority SPs, I'm still picking up 4-5 of these recording per day. Usually this data gets cleaned up over the weekend, but if not, I have to go through a tedious cancellation process.

I will say this, though: when the guide data is updated, everything works as promised.
