Metadata improved? I disagree. It is becoming more and more common that the information about the program being broadcast is incorrect, the wrong film is shown, and incorrect data is included in the information. Main actors are not shown or with incorrect information.
Episodes of series are listed twice, complete with the same information and title, but with different episode numbers. Sometimes it’s the same episode, sometimes not.
Sometimes I have recordings in the list that I didn’t even take. Sometimes there are recordings that I wanted, especially with series, but when I want to watch them there is something completely different in them, either from the same channel or from another. Sometimes the recording you want is there, but it starts somewhere in the middle of the stream and therefore stops in the middle when the stream is officially over (blue bar).
The start of the specified broadcast and the start of the stream display often do not match. The broadcast begins when half of the blue bar is already gone. That postpones everything. This happens especially at night. I don’t know how to cancel it again, but the next time I turn it on, both will agree again.
Archived episodes of a series are resumed.
I really hope that Swisscom gets this under control, because you really can’t rely on the information. Without wanting to appear polemically threatening, I have already considered changing provider because of all the problems.
Addendum: Another duplicity discovered: ZDF Neo, Death in Paradise, Season 9: all episodes have already been recorded (not archived), around January 15th, 2021, less than a year ago. Nevertheless, the episodes will be shown again as reserved recordings from October 6th, 2021; same station. A few weeks ago Swisscom still had this under control.
P.S.: I’m replying here with this list of errors because the thread was started by Swisscom. I know that it is actually a “customers helping customers” forum in which Swisscom employees are kindly reading along.
