Yes and if you press the i button it also gives the wrong info about the program on screen.

Last night it was a doco on North Korea, but the guide said Air Crash Investigators, which would had been ok, but I had seen that North Korean doco

Nat Geo HD programme guide is one hour ahead of what is being shown, but Discovery HD is OK.  Which do you think they'll fix first - this schedule problem or the full on-screen programme guide??

The Disco HD is off, every single episode of "Green Paradise" (for example)was different to the one described in the guide, if it said Fiji you got Namibia etc. Lovely programs but if you wanted particularly to see one, you had to watch or record every single one to be sure. I did complain and got replies but nothing has changed.
Nat Geo is indeed off by 1 hour at the moment. Hopefully it records the Ferrari Megafactory tonight, I've been waiting months to re-record it (having moved and lost the recording).
I've taken the defeatists way out and set it to record the programs before and after as well!

I know they're not the same channel and know the answer is probably 'never' but geez I'd like to see Mythbusters on Discovery World HD

You have to set it for the program before the one you want! I've e-mailed them but no reply so far. They usually do reply though.

Just got this reply:-
"Thank you for your email to FOXTEL.

I appreciate the time you have taken to contact us regarding Nat Geo HD scheduling.  I apologise for the technical issues with the channel which did mean the channel schedule and TV Guide where not in synch.  We had notified the channel who corrected this."

I can't tell from what I'm watching, whether it's actually fixed or not, it's supposed to be about megafish and there IS a large boat but they're talking about pirates, so it may or may not be the right program. I'm thinking that the problem is still there.

It would appear to have been fixed overnight.
