Problem recording show on local channel

D* does not have any thing to do with what shows up in the show info, it comes from another company that provides that info. Search around here and you should come up with more info on it.

 

Its Tribune and you can use this [link] to ZAP2it to report it. It is a website run by Tribune.

 

I'll just about guarantee that it will end up still being an issue with the local station not providing the correct guide info to Tribune. They passed the buck just to get you off their back...

 

What's wrong with this solution?

Tribune is almost certain to tell you that they forward the information that they get from the station just as DIRECTV has told you that they forward the information that they get from Tribune.

Ultimately, it is probably the TV station that is at fault for providing the information that everyone is simply forwarding.

 

Is your show scheduled to air at the same time on Saturdays, but live events postpone the airing of your show?

 

DIRECTV doesn't magically change their guide data to handle overruns. Chances of automatic recovery from an athletic event overrun are vanishingly small.

A manual timer that runs long is arguably the best solution to your problem.

 

If that's the case it's unlikely that you'll be able to record this show using the guide anyway. Manual recording with some padded time at the end is really the only option.

 

See, I read RVD26 response entirely differently. I read it to understand that the guide says the "special" airs at different times from week to week.

Sounds to me like manually choosing to record this show each week is your best option until you can convince your local station to correct the data they're sending to Tribune.
