Guide Mistake

There's a show entitled "Unspun World" that airs on channel 346 (BBCN) at 01:30 EDT on Saturdays, and then replays a few times over that ensuing weekend.
BBCN often pre-empts these news documentaries when breaking news supercedes. Ergo, I opt to record all those replayed episodes as a back-up to the initial airing.
However, these episodes often replay under the title of "This Week's World" (on the program guide) instead of "Unspun World". It's been like this for months.
Exception: "Unspun World" was on a brief hiatus; during this time, actual "This Week's World" episodes aired in the slots appropriated for them on the program guide.
I enjoy both shows. I've missed one or both several times because of these errors.
Not my receiver. I've reset it, and so have you (DirecTV).
Please help. TIY.

DTV like most TV providers buys the guide data from a third party guide maker that the channels send their info to, so either the channel is sending them the wrong info or the guide maker is screwing it up
