Maybe FWanks behind in his subs to the tv networks so they are dragging their feet with the listings updates.
I wouldn't bet against that given his recent financial situation allegedly.

Until 6 months ago I have Virgin Media. The EPG for allegedly was always incorrect. The EPG for SKY tends to be accurate.
Sky publishes their own electronic program guide data and can update it whenever they want. Virgin do not allow broadcasters access to their network or the electronic programme guide. Broadcasters have to send program information to Virgin 7 days in advance. For a channel like allegedly, who land broadcast rights at the last minute, this can be a major inconvenience. They have to send an update request to Virgin to change the programme list. They are then at the mercy of Virgin updating this in a timely fashion.
I had TiVo in my living room with V+ in my bedroom. I often found that the information displayed on TiVo was more accurate than the information displayed on my V+ box. V+ would show “Boxing from York Hall” whilst TiVo would show “Appbleby Vs. Walsh from York Hall”.

It's a pretty big problem, I've actually missed a few live fights over this, missed a lot of the Macau card

how difficult would it be to publish a schedule on their website ?

They do. The only problem (though an understandable one) is that they often pick up fights late.martinmrts wrote:how difficult would it be to publish a schedule on their website ?

you'll need to edit the allegedly part of the link
Re: b o x n a t i o n .....why is the tv listing always wrong
Do you mean a schedule that cover the channel 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? I'd be a fan of them adding that to their website.martinmrts wrote:how difficult would it be to publish a schedule on their website ?
