I'd expect first thing in the morning, then they have most of the day to sort out any problems before "most" people notice.

Sometimes there is an engineering comment in the transport stream giving the details of imminent changes, times etc. but I couldn't see anything there just now.

I'm sure someone will have posted some details here or DS or AVF well before then.

I'm amazed that a MythTV user knows what day never mind what time a specific programme is broadcast, that's Myth's job ;-)
