12-14 days ahead is the norm. It's the EPG that can lag behind.

It depends where you are in the week. Come Monday, the Radio Times only goes up to the Friday.

When the new issue is published the following day, you can see 10 days ahead to the following Friday.

I don't know how you get to 14 days, unless you get an advance copy of the publication!

We usually check our TV EPG usually early Friday and most channels apart from ITV show at least 12 to 14 days ahead as theirs at that point is only 8 days ahead until early Saturday.

I'm talking about online. It's been several years since I bothered with a print version.

It may take 24 hours to update your account . There have also been a number of issues launching this app. If in doubt give VM a ring tomorrow.

Can anyone explain how to remotely set a Tivo box to record a programme based on something in the TV guide now please? I'm completely flummoxed by the improved TVGo features* that we now have at our disposal.

* VM's oxymoron marketing is in full swing here.

You need an Apple or Android device to use Virgin TV Control.

Crazy that with TV Go you can:-
Quote:

Reorganise your Virgin TV Go Guide – see your favourites first
Yet all you can do with it is view live or set a reminder.

It would seem that the problem is that there is no link to your Tivo within the TV Go App.

This may be a daft question bit how do you select a date in the future when using Virgin TV App.

I can pick a time and date on my iPhone using the app but how do I get it to go to that time and date, I just cannot see anything to click to
make it happen.

Swipe left/right to change time. Touch left/right arrows to go down/up a day or touch date to select a day.

Re: New TV Apps from December 7th
 
Thanks for that, but you used to be able to select a time and day in the future without having to keep swiping.

It was much easier if you were going more than a week in the future.
