Yes, that was a positive move. You are more likely to find a programme you like by going through the suggestions than by channel hopping.

Given your Netflix and Amazon Prime subscriptions, how often do you have to fall back on suggestions for something to watch?

Never, actually. However, I am aware of those who 'channel hop' and when I tried this myself in the early days, I found it an unsatisfactory way of discovering what was on. When you eventually find a programme you want to watch using this method, you tend to find that you are some way through it already, which is frustrating. At least with the 'Suggestions', the programmes are more tailored to your viewing habits and each one you can watch from the beginning.

I wasn't thinking of me when I wrote my post, I was aiming my comments at those who tend to find their programmes by channel hopping.

I have always used a more sophisticated method of planning my viewing, and now I have so much choice, the quality of my viewing is now very good indeed.

Ok, thanks. Working more like it should have done at launch.

Was the On demand music section completely replaced by the Vevo App?

It's not so bad when you get used to it. It appears a bit difficult to find a good play list at first that doesn't just feature one of the artists on the main menu, but once you search and play a track that you select, it just continues to play different videos.

Remember that if you want to return to the Vevo menu, just press the left hand button on your remote for as many times as necessary and you will get there.

Don't like the advertisement interruptions, but they are relatively brief.

Was looking a little bit earlier at the Vevo app and there are some very glaring omissions on there from certain well known artists.

That's probably because Warner Music is currently missing from Vevo http://www.billboard.com/articles/bu...er-music-group

Anymore software updates due for this Tivo or is that it now until the new box?

denphone 09-02-2016 17:46

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
 
BenMcr is likely to have the answer to that question but one would imagine his lips are sealed somewhat.:)

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
 
Ben's might be but mine aren't. Yes, future updates are planned. I'm not saying what or when though.

denphone 09-02-2016 18:47

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
 
And will there be a new box? as the word on the street is that there is one coming..
