The fact that Tivo actively goes and finds alternative recording times is excellent!

Agreed this can be helpful in many occasions , one being a powercut.

Must admit mate parental controls can be annoying , still I suppose they are there for a reason.

Just checked the Tivo and you cannot change the age rating ( you can change some parts to require a pin E.G purchase controls ), someone else may be able to advise if possible :confused:

possibly, it's something Cindy Rose has hinted at in the press, but more likely 500gb and 1TB only.

Re: TiVo

When the boxes are mostly mpeg4 compatible the switch would create even more storage space , on sky my 250gb box tapes 60hrs HD and the Sky 1tb box does 240 hrs HD so if Virgin had a 500gb TIVo under mpeg 4 you'd be looking about 120 hrs and the TIVO 1tb 240 hrs.

Once everyone is on TiVo or V-HD then we can switch.
