Description

I have an autorec to record the Agent Carter series on Paramount. It works fine. Today I noticed an upcoming recording for an episode of Wynonna Earp, which immediately follows Agent Carter. The upcoming recording is automatic and alleges that it is required/authorised by the autorec for Agent Carter. I cannot think of any explanation other than a bug. Here's the evidence I've discovered; feel free to ask for more.

# pwd

# grep -r Wynonna *

Extracts from epgdb.v2 (I don't understand why some episodes have two stanzas and others only have one - the TVH web UI list two episodes of Agent Carter(one new, one repeat) and four episodes of Wynonna Earp (three different on two channels, and one repeat)):

I see this after every daylight saving time change. It occurs due to bad EIT data from the provider.
It appears that program X is mis-scheduled one hour later (or earlier in the fall...) when program Y is really scheduled. Later, the correct EIT data is sent and then program X is scheduled at it's correct time, but the original (bad data) scheduled recording is not removed, instead the updated EIT data is used to correctly title the (bad data) recording with it's real title (program Y).
