I am hoping someone knows this (I would be surprised if no one does, given how much details is known about every other satellite data stream). I am asking in this Forum, since it is the Forum frequented by everyone who might know the answer, and is somewhat related to Uplinks.
Previously when I asked this in a short, simple way, some people had no idea what I was asking for, so I will give an example.
Suppose you have a Dish Pass set for "The Joe Blow Show".
The day before, there was no Guide listing information indicating any showing of "The Joe Blow Show" today.
However, the day before, the World Championship of Blah-Blah ended after 5 games (4-1) and so there will not be a sixth game.
So, the Network decides to air an episode of "The Joe Blow Show" instead of tomorrow's scheduled sixth game.
If your ViP622 gets the Guide Listing update, then it will record the show tomorrow.
But if your last update of the EPG was before Dish Network changes the Guide Listing, then it will not record "The Joe Blow Show" - because you will still have the listing of "Sixth Game of the World Championship".
Dish Network offers a 9-day EPG listing. In order for it not to be an 8-day listing the next day, they have to update the Guide and add another day's listings. That has to happen at least once a day.
So, I want to know "at what time is that EPG Guide Listing changed every day" - meaning at what time every day is the EPG streaming data changed?
We know that uplinks and tables are usually changed at roughly 11:30 am Mountain Time on Wednesday.
Software updates are usually spooled at Midnight Mountain Time, often on Thursday/Friday.
So, it seems likely that EPG data streams are updated on a daily basis at a specific time...
