Once again, "live from the red carpet" wrong time in SD

Happens every award season, and it's starting now.

Emmy's Primetime Awards are Monday Sept 17 airing 8PM eastern, 5PM Pacific. And E! has their regular "live from the red carpet show before the main show, airing 3PM-5PM Pacific, i.e. 6PM-9PM eastern. The show is simulcast "live" in all time zones (or at least here in LA it is, where the award show itself is actually happening).

Well, as usual, the SD Guide data currently showing in my Lineup:CA57315:X on WMC incorrectly reports the east coast schedule for that day. So "live from the red carpet" shows in the Guide as 6PM instead of the 3PM it actually is on. I now always pre-check these shows in advance before just pushing "record", just to avoid getting hit with mistakes like this one.

I've submitted a ticket to SD.

SD must be the most ambiguous initialism here on TGB. :-)

SD = Standard Definition
SD = SiliconDust
SD = Schedules Direct

Could be worse. The SD listing error might be affecting the SD broadcast on his SD tuner. :crazy:
