I've not any such problems with mine-I wouldn't be waiting for an update if I were you, I'd be expecting a replacement for my faulty box.

Mine's frozen up a few times and rebooted itself. Only had it a week, too. Since it's a brand new box it is most likely a firmware issue.

Still, it's way more reliable than the Super Hub. :D

I've only had 1 reboot in all the time I've had mine (since December '10) it sounds like you have a possbile signal issue, I'd give TiVo faults a call.

Our Tivo has done a couple of strange things this evening.

First, when it started recording Come Dine With Me on 4HD it changed channel as if it was on a V+ reminder. This was the only recording programmed.

Second, after I changed it back to BBC 1HD, the mini guide flashed on and off a few times during the next 10 minutes or so (along with the press red button logo top left).

These are in addition to the momentary picture freezes and sparodic re-boots.

Cheers
Grim

The mini-guide on our tivo flashes up quite regularly with no one pressing the remote also.

Froze up again while I was watching a HD recorded Rugby game from Friday (Australia drubbing USA). I pressed left to go back to My Shows after the game had finished, with the recording still playing, and it loaded the red VM HD backdrop, PiP window still in the top corner playing... then nothing else for five minutes. I had to hold down the power button on the front to trigger a hard reset, ruining the recording of something else in the background.

It's done something like this four times and I've only had it 8 days. Not good enough. If I can't rely on it, there's no point paying for it.

l must be lucky as the only problem l get sometimes with the Tivo is the odd failure to update information on the EPG.

If the UI locks up but the video still plays you could try the shortcut to reset the UI. Press Thumbs Down, Thumbs Up, Play, Play and after about 10 seconds it should reset the UI without rebooting the box or losing any in-progress recordings.

What did TiVo faults say when you called?
