I believe it checks in with TiVos servers every 20 minutes for any updates.

Installed this afternoon, just under and hour as the first dowload took 2 minutes and so had to force it a couple of times. No power levels or anything needed altering, pretty much just a regular box swap out.

Ahh the S1 memories are flooding back, so easy to use. Shame you often get the same menu options twice when it flicks into an SD menu, e.g. setting Series Links. I'm sure it will eventually be a full HD UI, except mybe system info which doesn't really need the HD face lift.

Really nice bit of kit though and there seem to be a lot of installs happening today! :)

How long does it normally take for your account on the website to recognise you have a TiVo for remote record?

Re: TiVo
 

I understand that when the Tivo box is put into standby, that the HDD continues to spin and does not power down, is this correct right now?

For those with V+ boxes, you will remember the S/W update which was implemented to allow full power down and save energy!

This is particularly useful for those who have their boxes in their bedroom (not me), so certainly something that should be implemented but perhaps not top of the "fix list" right now!

Does anybody have any insight on this point?

I am also curious on the facebook app, can this individual app be pin protected say so you can stop your kids getting onto facebook via the Tivo?

Re: TiVo
 

You can't hear the HDD in the TiVo. It's very quiet.

Facebook isn't available just yet. I'd imagine it will work like Twitter and have a access PIN when it launches

Mobile Record seems hit and miss

Re: TiVo
 

It'll come right soon enough. I've been using mobile record on sky for a year or 2 and it never lets me down.

Re: TiVo
 

Been following this thread since the start and have changed my mind at least three times...

At the moment if I win one thats great, :)if I don't I think I will wait until summer and get some real user feedback before paying out hard cash. In principle from what I have read, by posters I trust, I bet its worth the £3..:D
