I've got a problem with GuidePlus that I haven't seen mentioned
before. I seem to be using version 1.0.0.50.

Whenever I update the schedule data, it deletes the current data, then
downloads a week worth of data starting with tomorrow. It does not
download today.

Let me repeat that. It does not download today's schedule. It
downloads one week's worth of data, starting with tomorrow.

If I want to schedule a recording for today (using GuidePlus), I have
to make sure to download the listings yesterday. Since the only time
I ever remember to update the guide is when I want to schedule a
recording, this defeats the purpose for using GuidePlus.

I've been having the very same problem for quite some time now. Like you, I
don't use Guide Plus very often. Whenever I do try to use it, I find the
listings are out of date, and when I download the new listings, they never
include today's information. Is there somewhere we can report this problem?

Same problem here too after the last update. But even if it worked it sucks
without any DTV listings for my HDTV wonder.

Found this link in another post. Unfortunately I seem to have used
fake information when I registered, in an attempt to dodge some spam.

I'm using GuidePLus right now, and it's working fine. That's because
I downloaded progam listings yesterday when I wrote the OP.
 
I only have that problem on Sunday. If I download the data on any
other day of the week I the current day as well.
