To be fair though --- you haven't used it on tivo. The reviews I read about it didn't explain how well implemented and convenient it is.

If you are a person that does use Youtube for such things, I suspect that, when you come back over from the 'Dark Side' :D and get tivo, you will find yourself using it!

I found the Tivo YT app dosent find the same results as the web page?

I have it on a Blu Ray player , but it doesn't really compare to the PC version.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

So do I and you're right in that respect, but it's the implementation on Tivo that makes it so good. It's a 'one click' to get youtube videos on a specific show, actor, director etc. that you're looking at in the Tivo menus.

some of the content that is available on the web version isn't available on 'connected devices' such as Tivo or TVs and blueray players. I believe the content author can decide on where it's viewable.

But the Tivo serch results give you a good selection and good for a quick look before or after you watch the show you're browsing, or in deciding wheather it's worth a watch.

40" Samsung LCD - was getting a brilliant picture with the Samsung V+ :(

Interesting, thanks. Didnt know that

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

My TiVo is fairly often giving me difficulty with "HDMI connection not permitted", and I'm not sure whether there is a reliable method of getting round this, or whether I should even phone in as a fault.

I seem to remember someone posting that it could be to do with having HDMI and scart both connected? My TiVo is connected to my 18 month old Sony KDL40s5500 LCD by HDMI, and to my 7? year old Panasonic DMR-ES20 DVDR by scart.

Any suggestions?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

it's a process of elimination.

I'd try just connecting the tivo with HDMI and no scart connection to see if it fixes it.

Try a different HDMI input on the TV

If not, try a different HDMI lead.

If that doesn't fix it and your TV worked with V+ via HDMI, I'd ring VM; it may be a faulty HDMI out on Tivo?

Not till lat in the year.

Lets hope so as that and reminders are two things that are missing at the moment.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

any idea why my Tivo defaults to recording wishlist searches on Audio Description channels?

I have to manually trawl through a long list of Frasier's to change this.

Why should wishlists default to high channel numbers? surely it would make more sense to start searching from 101?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

TiVo has never had those features though, so really they aren't missing ;)

It shouldn't matter if it records those channels though as the audio description has to be selected. Otherwise you will just get standard audio.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

But if Virgin listen to customers feedback which has already been stated on this forum that these two things need to added at some point in the future.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

ah didnt know that. Will leave it as is then! Cheers

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

Now that is exactly what I need.

Forums are great, but sometimes finding the information is difficult. Taking the time to summarise the information is appreciated.

Thank you :)
