How far ahead, in terms of the ESPN channels, can TiVo customers see?

I have EPG info until Midday Friday 2nd August, that pretty much confirms ESPN staying, however there is info until the same time for both ESPN America and Classic...

Does your Tivo allow you to record shows from ESPN on that day?

I fail to see how that confirms its staying, it just means Virgin are still pulling guide data for the channel, doesn't mean you'll be able to watch it.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.

But some channels info listings on the TV Anywhere web site are not right.

It says no live broadcasts will be shown on Bid and Price Drop from Monday - just showing 'Tellyshopping' all day long.

But the live broadcasts are still listing on V+ and Sky+ boxes.

Yes.
Well if the channel is moving over to BT and do a different playout service then there wouldn't be any data to pull

Maybe Tribune does data for something else that has ESPN, IDK. It's definitely wrong though because America & Classic are definitely closing.

I do notice sometimes that on some channels EPG they copy incorrect data for the days ahead that corrects nearer the broadcast time - Comedy Central & E4 do this a lot...

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2013) Vol. 3.

According to the App ZeeBox we currently have access to More4+1 and MTV+1 on channel 900 and 901 respectively. Could be a sign of the remaining Viacoms and More4 HD coming
