The units here pick up the published schedules over the Internet. If what you're saying is happening (they publish a time, like 6 May at 7pm, and then don't show the show) how would anyone know the show was on? That doesn't sound like what Marcus is describing at all.
You can also get units that tie into the station's signal so that they can compensate for things like sporting events running long: that's fairly common over here during football season.
If they're using the same protocols etc as my digibox, I wouldn't trust them to get the right day: at the moment, my "currently showing" lags at least ten minutes behind actual programming...
