Nurse Jackie

Nurse Jackie started 10 minutes earlier than marked last night in Melbourne.  Luckily, I had  a 9 minute padding on it, so only missed the credits

Hi csutak40  sorry about that we are still coming to grips with the minor adjustments to show starts, lucky for us you only missed the credits.

I wonder if the FTA programmers are specificaliy trying to make life as difficult as they can for IceTv at the moment.

I wonder if the FTA programmers are specificaliy trying to make life as difficult as they can for IceTv at the moment.

In another thread, I mentioned that the IceTV time Nurse Jackie was 10 minutes later that the FTA guide time i.e. 11:55 Vs 11:45.
The response was along the lines of " this show always starts late so we factor that in to the IceTV time". Not a procedure I favour - I would rather just worry about shows finishing late and add post-padding to cover that. I don't like having to add pre-padding as well because of maybes.
We all know that shows will often run late, but they rarely start early.

Hi Guys  previously there have been adjustments made to starting times to allow for the late starting of shows we are currently removing these adjustments as we go so as you have pointed out you only have to worry about adding padding at the end. I would imagine that we will clear these all out by the end of this week as we roll forward.
