EPG Episode number off?

I have schedules direct, and the episode number of the Late Show with Stephen Colbert is off by 3....is that intentional from the provider or an error in schedules direct?

For that type of show I wouldn't really worry about it. It's not customary to even display an episode number at all with a show that is daily, or intended to be attached to a date. if the guide data had that information then we wouldn't even show the episode number at all.

The episode number is less important.  The issue is that it puts in the wrong people on the show, so the header is completely off.  I don't really care about the episode number itself, but the metadata attached to it.

This will not have any impact on metadata inside the tv guide. It may have an impact on a recording if you've enabled internet metadata providers for the library the recording is in.
