Cable Forum - TiVo General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Maybe I just missed it then. I know I was able to optimise suggestions, but I don't remember the discovery bar option at all. Maybe was too dazzled by everything else LOL

I missed that as well. Saying that, I came home from work one day to find TiVo had recorded 18 suggestions in about 10 hours, all Of them repeats that I'd already seen of shows I'd thumbed up. I turned off suggestions straight away. That was about 4 weeks ago.

Hi,

anyone had this happen recently,last night Tivo set to record BGT,Corrie ITV1 HD and Megacities BBC1 HD

When i go into my shows BGT had only recorded for 36 mins, Corrie 2 mins and Megacities 1 min.

Tried to play back BGT and Tvio whet into a fit the unit locked up and the hard drive was making a clicking sound.

Done a reset and it now seems ok.

First problem i have had with Tivo, hope it is a one off.

An ad in the Discovery Bar is nothing, really :)

I agree. And if it means generating more money for VM, which means more money to invest in TiVo/VM TV improvements then all the better.

If you turn off this key feature then you may miss things you would have wanted and will lose the chance to discover new programmes you might like based on your current viewing preferences.

Its like buying a widescreen tv for the first time and then putting masking tape down either side to make the picture more like the shape you are used to! ;)
