Cable Forum - TiVo General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Ive got a brilliant idea, why not supply your best customers with TiVo (if they want it), then only charge them for it when it works as it should. I'd be up for that.

Reminders will appear soon, and Sky have allowed Virgin to show their channels whilst in the guide, as well as other stuff like the channel name being shown on the right of the screen whilst looking in the backwards guide.

Thanks for the link.

24 events on the BBCi app for the Olympics...impressive! Although I doubt people will be pleased to see that Sky Sports red button won't be making an appearance for quite some time (late 2011/early 2012).

Due to a change in contract with Sky, previously blacked out Sky channels while viewing the guide will now be shown - 2011

Reminders to , well done VM and TIVO for listening. LEAVE IT CARL LOL.
It really amazes me on here how every problem VM have is always Sky's fault , thanks for highlighting that Phil.

I stand corrected........

simultaneous on the same channel - now that would be clever

It's there for when it will work. You'd rather they miss it off now and give you a new remote with one on later? :rolleyes:

Just like the text button on the other VM remotes lol :D

Well mine's working as it should in that it's recording what I ask it to. Is yours not? :rolleyes: Anything else is just bells and whistles; good to have but not essential.

Funny, my V+ worked as it should and recorded what I asked it to and it didn't record multiple versions of the same show.

It had some bells and whistles such as Red Button Interactive, Reminders, Information panel on the front of the box, DVD copying made easy and it cost less to rent. Need I go on?:D

Change to create an illusion of progress!:gpoint:

If Tivo is advertising certain features, then they aren't bells and whistles; they're part of the advertised feature set.

Tivo offers powerfull search and additional information on shows, actors, directors and the like with links to online information. That is an important part of the feature set. You may just use the 'recording features' but others want that advertised extra functionality; it's what separates the Tivo box from V+ or Sky+

So, they should work. For me, they do, so I don't have a problem, just delight in the extra functionality.
