Having just got Topup TV I was interested to make use of that hither-too unused menu function "Channel Highlights". Something which never had any use to me might now actually have a function.

Unfortunately despite UkTV Gold and E4 being available on Topup trying to access the program data using this part of the guide tells me they are channels I do not receive.

I appreciate that given the restricted broadcasting hours of these channels on TUTV it kinda makes it a different channel as far as TiVo is concerned even giving them different channel names (like UKGDLTU and E4TU).

Shame really, I guess that functionality it still not much use to me or fellow TUTV viewers.

Along with "Inside Tivo" or whatever it is, these are two menu items I have never used

On not entirely unrelated point, for several weeks now, the Channel Highlights for Sky Movies has only covered films showing on Sky Cinema and gives nothing in relation to the other Sky Movies channel.

Yes, I have the same problem with only Sky Cinema covered. Its a shame as I did use this to choose a few films each month.

I have noticed that the Channel Highlights don't work for Sky Movies 1-9 but do for Sky Cinema, yet movies do show up in Inside Tivo using the old Premier / Moviemax names.
Could this be an issue related to the name change back to Sky Movies? Sky Cinema 1&2 were the only channels not to change name and are now the only channels that still work in the Channel Highlights section

That seems very plausible - and a very good spot by you, Mr_C. Tribune are meant to monitor the programme listing errors thread, so I will link to this there and see if they pick it up.

Some work has been done on this - so the TopUp channels should now be referenced correctly.

If you spot any which are not - please post in this thread.
