Check your Harmony set up I have a One for the living room and a 525 for the bedroom and the work with Tivo like a dream not yet had a time when the box has not switched on/off when required.

The V+ and VHD that I had before quite often would fail to respond to power on/power off command so I ended up just adding a power toggle to one of screen buttons.

Major gripe!

Tonight or technically it is now last night now, I had Mount Pleasant to record on a series link on Sky 1 HD. I was watching football and noticed the box recording and when I checked it was recording said program.

I go to watch the show at around 2330 and it's nowhere to be seen, not in deleted etc. I check recording hiccups and it states didn't record due to no signal?!! What! I was watching tv and had seen it recording?!

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this, I have a 500GB TiVo box.

Re: I love my TiVo but I have a little gripe...?
 

It seems it was unable to tune to Sky1HD, but could tune to whatever channel the football was on. This can happen because the signal level can vary between the frequencies.

I suggest you watch and/or record some more from Sky1HD, and if it happens again report it as a fault.

Record lots on Sky 1HD and this has never happened before, it's now done this on Comedy Central HD this morning. I have a series link for King of Queens. It has two episodes every night and it recorded the first but not the second due to no video signal?! Theyre shown back to back!

Re: I love my TiVo but I have a little gripe...?
 

Sounds like your box has got a duff tuner, and it fails whenever it picks that tuner. Get on the phone to VM.

Thanks for your help Spiderplant, I've rung and am awaiting a 24-48 hour call back, strange how this has only just begun to happen had TiVo for a while now.

Just tried recording three things and they all recorded fine, maybe a sporadic dodgy tuner?

Re: I love my TiVo but I have a little gripe...?
 

Possibly your signal has just dropped enough for it to start being a problem. Try recording Sky1HD, ComCenHD and Film4HD.

Re: I love my TiVo but I have a little gripe...?
 

Just set them to record, will keep you posted. Thanks for your time.

Sky 1HD program recorded fine, Com Cen HD also recorded fine, Warlock was still recording on Film4HD but also fine.

Puzzled!?

Re: I love my TiVo but I have a little gripe...?
 

All programs have been fine since, I did reset the box yesterday.
