Cable Forum - TiVo General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Define old? I'm sure some old people may have issues but my parents (both over 60) had no problem with the S1 Tivo and don't have a problem with the V+ either. Though, of course, I suppose I should add that 60 isn't that old :D

I'm 66 in three days time and when it comes to tech I can run rings around all of my younger extended family. Who do they all call when the gremlins strike......yes the family elder with all the gear and they have all done very well with my recycled tech. I dragged them all into the digital age!:knock:

Old people indeed! Bloody cheek!:D

.....and I see he's a friend of yours as well Carl!

Older people have so much to offer in my mind.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Can I just add, as if it was not for the old people we would not be here to get the new Tech.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I know it used to take 3 days or so for the S1's to react to schedule changes. I don't know what the figure is for the VM Tivo. If CC have changed their schedule at the last minute, this could explain the problem.

I don't know if that is the issue. I'm just offering it as a possible explanation :)

DigiGuide seems to be right though.
