From the "American Idol" Newsgroup.


"TiVo actually sent a message last night to give instructions on how to
record "American Idol" tonight, because the program guide may not be
updated in time to show the new schedule. I guess that reflects what
a cultural phenomenon AI has become ... I mean, it might as well be
the Olympics! ;)"

Uh...Replay...what have you done for me lately????

Give me a jingle when Tivo provides networked scheduling, pause-and-go
streaming, show download capabilities, etc. Oh, and out of the box, at
that.

....and let me know when they have Commercial Advance. (I know that it's
been dropped from current RTV models but they still sell the 5000's
online).

Actually tonight's American Idol showed up on my 3060's Channel Guide this
morning.

However, the Replay didn't handle the situation completely smoothly -- I had
previously had AI scheduled to record from 8:30-9 and , when I heard about the
rescheduling, I added a guaranteed record for "That 70s Show" which was listed
yesterday on the program guide from 8-8:30. I figured this way I would get
both halves of the AI hour. The unit recorded from 8-8:30 (listed in the
Replay Guide as "That 70s Show" even though that program had disappeared from
the guide) but didn't record the second half of AI. I'm stumped as to why,
though I suspect if I would have just left things how they were rather than
getting clever I'd have the whole thing automagically.
