Do you think some TV companies are deliberately adjusting programme start times to frustrate Tivo etc users ?
So....
Set up a series link for TV Burp. For some reason, Tivo insists on recording it on ITV2 (or maybe ITV2+1) instead of ITV1. The ITV shows are generally missing the end. It also finds some early TV Burps on Comedy Channel (? or something). These always miss the beginning.
Family Guy on BBC3 is a suggestion on our Tivo. But Tivo has always stopped recording well before the end of an episode. So suggestions aren't padded ?
The other day, there was a travel programme on Channel 5 we wanted. The programme was scheduled to start at 1900. I flicked onto 105 at 1858 (Tivo time) and it had already started so I hit the record this show button. Of course Tivo thought it was recording whatever was on before the programme we wanted and we came back to find around 6 minutes of actual recording. Dohhhhhhh!
