Blasted EPG errors
 

Getting sick of how many times the EPG is inaccurate in recent days..It's getting so I can't trust it at all.Can't find any info on it anywhere.Is anyone else finding that the programmes shown aren't the ones advertised both in the EPG or in Radio Times.

Specifically I can't find if the last 3 episodes of Grimm are going to be shown at any point.What I'm getting is a series on a maternity unit.

Just been informed that it's not being shown this week..despite being advertised in the Radio Times.However it's been happening with a couple of other shows so my complaint still stands.

Yes l have noticed it on several other channels as well where it says one thing and something else is showing instead.

It`s been on one of the usual odd breaks they have before a series end. The last episodes are a double header

I'm beginning to lose count of the number of times TiVo has messed up recordings because of inaccurate EPG information. It has failed to record programmes because of 'No longer in guide' errors when it clearly was, has recorded some episodes twice and failed to record others because they were incorrectly numbered - this was especially galling as the missing recording in question was the last of a series and was no longer available via catch up by the time I discovered the error - or has failed to record something because it was misspelt. There are more examples.

I don't know who is responsible for compiling the EPG, TiVo or Virgin Media, but whoever it is is doing a dire job.

Do you still have a V+ Maggy?

I've had the same problems too.

It's these people that are responsible for compiling the VM EPG for the V+ and the TiVo:

EPG problems* can be reported to:

TivoGuideErrors@virginmedia.co.uk

* This can be used for the V+ too.

Sky Sports 3 are showing Scottish Football tonight from 7pm.

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

I'm one of those people who prefers to record a whole series and then watch the episodes back to back. This often means that I only discover the EPG errors after the series has disappeared from the EPG. Infuriating and kind of negates the purpose of having a TiVo in the first place.

Virgin media yesterdays technology - today.

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

That's a bit of a glib statement my dear chap...

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

But it is true my friend.

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

Only to those who want to see it that way....

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

Well the V+ is rather old now.

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

But he was talking about the TIVO!

Re: Blasted EPG errors
 

But the thread is about V+

i never mentioned Tivo anywhere in my post.
