Actually Tivo never had a dynamic epg. The box called in once a day to download and unpack new data which would take 30 mins or so, any schedule changes wouldn't be picked up until that call. It often missed shows if tv was running late. The only time it changed a scheduled recording was if there was a clash and it found a repeat at another time.
