If you went with a 500GB box then decided you wanted 1TB would they charge you £200 or £150 (£200 - £50 for 500GB)?

I would not like to comment on this but I can understand you thinking in regards to this. Would this need to be done in the 7 days?

I would imagine that if it were done during the cooling off period it would be, £199 activation for the 1TB and the £49 activation refunded for the 500GB. Not sure if any install fee would be involved.

I LOVE TIVO!

Was just searching through the Sci-Fi films earlier in the week and spotted that "Contact" was on tomorrow; ie Sunday.

Result :D

I imagine its at least 50% the broadcasters fault for the problems especially with channels like Watch where they seem to broadcast most of their shows at random and therefore the description is usually a summary of the show as opposed to a description of that episode meaning things like series number and episode number are likely to be negated. Then when they do show original content, the lack of information may sometimes carry over.

Or its just a human will always be better at scheduling things.

Probably the latter.

Yes. Werid. :confused:

ETA: I have just checked this out and it seems that this week's ep has been set up on a different TMSID. You need to report this to VM. A TMSID is the unique identifier given to every programme or film so that it can be, well, identified. We will all have this problem so we should all report it :)

ETA2: Upon further investigation it looks like this Saturdays ep has (I assume accidentally) been put in the Series Link used by the older series of the show; ie pre-2005. I only spetted this when I saw that the "old series" picture (McCoy and McCann) appeared in my Discovery Bar because 'Arthur Darvill appears in this show'. Erm... no, he probably doesnt :D

No such problems here. You have set it to "new only" haven't you?

Well my SL for "Primeval" is currently going to record this week's Tuesday ep only and is only going to record both new eps next week due to generic data. No other old series eps are due to be recorded. So I don't know what your problem is :confused:

And the DR WHO issue has been reported and will be fixed in time.

OK, how do you 'explore this show' for a recorded programme which you're playing back?

carlwaring 30-05-2011 23:09
Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 
Well you can't without stopping playback ;)

Just go to the main info screen for the show; ie by clicking 'ok' whilst the show is highlighted in "My Shows".

What the heck is wrong with the EPG data for new South Park episodes? It just has a generic show description so it is recording about 30 odd episodes a week.

That'll be because that's all TMS have been given by the broadcaster.
