Bledisloe Cup

There is something wrong with the scheduling for the Bledisloe Cup this Saturday 29 July.The listing at 7.55 pm is for '2021 - Game 3 - Post Match' and marked as a repeat. It should be for the match being broadcast live!

Where did that come from?

Still not quite right.

9HD Canberra I have had to set a recording manually, and 9SD is still showing the repeat.

I think even Nine has it confused in the FTA EPG. I had to manually extend the timer to cover the whole match.

Hi there -

I've just had another quick look and it's definitely all corrected and marked as premieres so I will check with Dan in the morning why it's not showing correctly for you.

Cheers,

Looks like game 2 Saturday 5 August is suffering the same fate, this time showing as repeats on all scheduled broadcasts on both 9SD and 9HD.

Game 2 has now been corrected.

There seems to be a blind spot when if comes to the Bledisloe Cup. Time and time again the main game is lost to IceTV scheduling if set to first runs only. It happened again last Saturday. Even though I thought I had gone in to IceBox and manually set the main game to record from the EPG, I lost it. And now, I see the main game again scheduled as a repeat for game 2 Saturday September 28.

I threw in the towel and set the timers for first runs and repeats. Even then My Week told me that the episode would not record because it was already part of a series recording. So I have clicked on "record this episode" and a timer has now been set and passed to IceBox, but there is still a red doughnut in the EPG. Will it record this time?

Hi Raymond,

Many thanks for your message. I have corrected the error for this Saturday's screening so there should be no issue with your recording. I've also taken a look at last week's screening and from this end there was no guide reason it shouldn't have recorded.
It seems in ACT and some regions they split the episodes into two separate slots which then generates a repeat of the second slot. We get around this by creating a 'continued' episode. This was in place for last weekend's game and I have just amended for this weekend.

Cheers,

Thanks Tiphanee, They actually split the coverage into three slots, with pre and post game bookending the main game. Whatever you have done your end, My Week for the main game is still showing "This show is waiting to be set by device IceBoxS. This show is part of a series recording." even though the timer is still showing as having been passed to IceBox.
