Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 2.
Does anyone know how often the TIVO listings are update, as they seem behind most of the time. They even list a program that isn't even on.

Remember Sky channels update to nearly two weeks ahead wherever many other channels will not update ahead to that type of period.

I understand what you are saying mate, but some channels say they are showing something, but TIVO listings have something else. A prime example of this was last night, ESPN showed Chelsea vs Man City, but TIVO's listings said they were showing NBA instead. VM should make sure the listings are always up to date.

I checked the EPG for the Chelsea v Man City match last night, drew a blank.  Ended up setting the Tivo for tonight.

I know mate. It was such a pain. Luckily, I noticed 5 mins into the match, that ESPN were showing it.

A somewhat confusing comment there.
Many of the regulars will probably skip through it anyway, they will already be aware of what is coming realistically soon and what is rumoured to be coming at some point, possibly, before the channel closes. I think the suggestions are mainly about making the list more useful to those who actually need it. At the moment there's a lot of detail in there that doesn't change from one update to the next, so many are left not being able to see the wood for the trees.

Mod comment - let's keep it civil, please.
Name calling those who disagree with you is not appropriate.

It was a strange game..man City had chances first half...but went 2-0 down...and when Chelsea were 3-0, I thought game over...but shows you what games would be like without anything to play for
