Obviously not--but if the data are correct as of the day of the recording, then you will get the recording.Space wrote:So if I want to record every show that has, say, "Johnny Depp" on as a guest, I should go to every website of every network everyday and search for any shows where he might be a guest?
If the data are correct as of the day of the recording, then you will dependably get the recording.If you don't have current, up to date, data then you can no longer do keyword-type records and expect any kind of dependability.
Which means you'll get your recording.Plus the data from TiVo leaves much to be desired as it is, they sometimes correct errors a few days before airing.
I don't understand. If the data are correct as of the day of the recordings in question, then you will get the recordings in question.It can be the difference between not recording your show (because it was "To Be Announced" instead of the correct program) and getting more dependable recordings of the shows you want.
Whether the next day's data, or the next week's data, are accurate or not does not change that. How can next week's data being filled in vs. saying "TBA" mean the difference between recording today's program or not for your keyword recording?
Have you ever missed such recordings because TODAY'S data are inaccurate? (I have--twice.) Are you finding that data continue to be inaccurate even as of the day of recording, causing you to miss recordings? If so, and if you care (after all, it is just TV), you know what the answer is: EPG 123.
I've never had the Rovi guide run out. And the two recordings I've missed since the Rovi takeover were not because of lack of updates, but rather because they miscategorized new shows as being reruns.
I could choose to clutch pearls over the fact of no update today and the guide going out only 11 days instead of 12. But I don't.
