Customer Impacting Issues 
The following illustration shows how the IPG displays data on the day of the fall 
time change.  
Notice that the system creates two 1:00 a.m. time periods on the day of the time 
change. This helps the system coordinate the return to standard time. 
Time Change 
11:00 p.m. 
12 midnight  1:00 a.m. 
1:00 a.m. 
2:00 a.m. 
3:00 a.m. 
 
Programs May Record Incorrectly 
Active recordings (Instant, Manual, or Scheduled) that are scheduled or that attempt 
to start or complete during the time change period (beginning 7 days prior to the 
return to standard time) may start or complete at various times, regardless of 
whether you schedule the recording on or before November 4, 2012.  
During the fall time change, there are two 1:00 a.m. time periods. The first 1:00 a.m. 
time period is ignored by the operating system. Recordings scheduled or attempting 
to start during the first 1:00 a.m. period will start during the second 1:00 a.m. time 
period, instead. Likewise, recordings scheduled to end during the first 1:00 a.m. time 
period will end during the second 1:00 a.m. time period.  
Recordings started at or prior to 12:59 a.m. on November 4, 2012 will start correctly, 
but the stop time will extend for one hour. 
Workaround: There is no workaround for this issue. 
Affected Code: All DVR releases 
 
Times Displayed in the Guide Are Off by One Hour 
Between 1:00 a.m. and 1:59 a.m., the IPG ignores the first 1:00 a.m. time period and 
displays the program times for the second 1:00 a.m. time period. 
Workaround: This is a known limitation and requires no workaround. 
Affected Code: All DVR and non-DVR releases
