Just wondering why there is a difference between the two...?

The V+ and TiVo listings come from two different companies.

And in a complete reversal of fortune, TiVo's EPG corresponds to what's being broadcast and ESPN's website is wrong (currently airing a repeat of Saturday's UFC while the website lists live NBA).

This is perhaps irrelevant, but I recorded a non live event MotoGP on Tuesday on Eurosport2 and got live tennis instead. Guess it overran. Then again, I can remember eurosport often showing something different to what the guide said.

Eurosport are notorious for never sticking to their own schedule.

The Eurosport EPG updates aren't as speedy as Sky Sports channels on the Sky platform either.

It's frequently the case that if you set to record live cycling you end up with half an hour of something else at the front of your recording, and I missed the last kilometre of a stage in one of the early season tours because the stage stage had been slower than predicted and the EPG wasn't updated.
