It was probably a bit harsh to mention the lack of a dynamic EPG as a bug, it's not a bug, just the lack of a pretty essential feature.
As far as I understand it, even if it could be moved the upload doesn't just cover the V+ HD boxes, but the V HD and SD boxes as well - and they only carry a one day EPG.

So if you move the time those customers (who outnumber the V+ customers by a fair bit!) may end up not having EPG information for times when people actually watch TV
