So if you set it to record, say, MTV tomorrow, there might be an hour of Eurosport on your hard drive. Not too mildly irritating.</p> The latest addition to the digital tv feature set is our digibox switching channel numbers every day.

Shouldn't be too science fictiony.</p> It’s quite amazing how stupid these digital tv boxes actually are. Using EPGs to record programs is like programming your VCR, no added intelligent.
