Network Scheduling to Mess with Tivo

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the anyone-else-anyed-by-this-one dept.

Yahoo is running a bit about Networks messing with PVRs by adding a minute to shows. If a show runs to 9:01, then you can't Tivo a show on another channel that starts at 9. I've noticed this, although it's less of a factor if you have a dual tuner tivo, but it's interesting to see a bit of mainstream coverage.

    You're also a tool. You are so consumed with being "cool," oh wait...you're not. Dang it, I forgot that tiny bit. Oh well...so you watched SBTB like all of us in that age group did, and so now you don't admit to it because you think it makes you look cool on /. to say that. Good job tool. Good job realizing that's why you can't get a girlfriend...it's because you suck. Goodnight, sleep tight.

    P.s.
    Don't cry, one day you won't wet the bed anymore. Tool.
