And yet, that's not a problem for viewers on other platforms.

Anyone remember PDC? It updated video recorders when the scheduling changed - PDC was out in 2003:

Yet here we are, almost a decade later in the digital age, and if anything we've gone backwards as far as TiVo is concerned for auto-compensating for scheduling changes.

Yep, I had to 'acquire' the 2 episodes of the Kennedys which TiVo declined to record, and before anyone asks - no, that wasn't due to a scheduling change or the lack of a Dynamic EPG. It was more poor metadata fed to my TiVo.
