That's likely the case.  The regular screens are not set up to scroll. 
There are special cases that some of the text might scroll, but that's
unintentional and I'd actually prefer it not.

Supporting all the screen functionality that SDT has is actually quite
tricky, especially with the icons and 3line text.  Over the years I
haven't had many requests to scroll the main display.  Personally I
think it would be distracting.

Having the period information automatically cycle (like hitting the
up/down remote buttons) has come up in the past.  It's possible but
would be difficult to implement as there are already quite a few timers
being used to control the display and to do it right all of them would
need to take an additional timer into account.  

What would be easier (I think) to implement would be force it to cycle
one item each time it returns from showing sports/etc.  I don't really
see the value though.

IMO a typical user will leave it set to one period (current or next)
and when they desire to see another period they'll use the remote to
find the exact one they care about.  I would never envision myself
waiting for it to cycle to the period I care about...
