TV guide issue
 

Hi my to guide hadn't updated since Friday 20th, and only shows programming up to fri 6th march, but terrestrial to channels only show up to fri 27th Feb. System info shows my box is connecting to network successfully every 6 hours as usual, but it doesn't download any programme info. I have tried rebooting and forcing a connection but still the same result. Any ideas? I have tried the service checker and VM says there is an issue with broadband in my area, but why would that affect the to if the box successfully connects to the network?:mad:

Re: TV guide issue
 

It's the same on my V6 - IMHO rebooting would rarely resolve this, as long as connections are succeeding this usually resolves in time.

Some channels show data well beyond Friday, so I'd only start worrying if this isn't populated by midweek.

Ok thanks for letting me know it's not just me. Fingers crossed it will update soon. Please can you let me know if or when yours updates, so I can check my box. Thanks again

Re: TV guide issue

The tivoguiderrors inbox has been good for me, since many years.

Today went to play a recording never mind wrong episode, it's totally the wrong show. Still listening it as the one I thought I was recording . A new low for epg :(

Re: TV guide issue
 

Can you provide the specific example?

Re: TV guide issue
 

Sure , recorded unsellable houses ,on really this was shown on epg . on playing it was fixer to fabulous. Sorry as I recorded about week ago cant pin it down more than that. If I remember when I get home I will look at delete recording
Really 31/1/25 " the actually unsellable house part 2 " S4. E 6

It just gets better ! Not bothering to look it up , but last night I had a recording of fixer to Fabulous, on Really. upon playing it the strap line was saying it. Was that show. In fact the show was about Andrew Lloyd Webber! Thinking Really has some major problems :(

Re: TV guide issue
 

Thanks for a sensible reply SP. Is this error affecting the 360 as well as the V6?

The EPG is getting worse by the day, so I emailed my contact at the office of the CEO and copied him in to each error I came across.

The response appeared to be AI originated and said that, because the V6 has been superseded by the 360, it's apps were gradually becoming out of date and the problem would go away if I ordered the 360!!!

Re: TV guide issue
 

So V6 is not fit for propose. Understand they could force new systems on to everyone. If they can't , don't . Are they not in breach of contract :erm:

Re: TV guide issue
 

It was V6 only. It was fixed shortly after I posted.

Don't report guide data errors to the CEO's office. They can't deal with them. Send them to tivoguideerrors at virginmedia.co.uk. You might not get a reply but they will be dealt with.

Re: TV guide issue
 

The guide is not in any sense live , out of date , slow , just plain wrong yes live so not:shocked:
