I am looking at changing from V+ HD to TiVo on the preregistration date.

Does anyone know if the Ethernet port on Virgins TiVo is enabled allowing me to connect it to existing home network to allow stored and recorded content to be copied off and stored on home server for example.

Many thanks.

In America, they have the "Tivo Desktop" software that enables you to play Tivo media on your PC. That's in America.

I think VM are looking to introduce facilities like that in the UK, but whether they can do so or not is probably determined by their content providers.

I am sure it was just a small update to fix the clock issues.

Ok cheers for that Stephen.

Just seen this over on the VM TIVO Community forum, So soon you will be able to see what we see.

Hello to all in the TiVo forum,

I hope you’ve been enjoying your next generation TiVo service. As we prepare to open the gates and allow all customers to purchase TiVo, we have decided to make some changes to our forum structure. From the 11th of April, this forum will no longer be private and any member of the Virgin Media community forum will have access to this area.

You won’t have to do anything different, but as we anticipate a lot more activity on this board going forward I wanted to prepare you for this. We think that you have done a fantastic job in creating a close-knit TiVo community, and I’m sure that you will welcome all those new to TiVo with open arms.

Thanks,
Alex
