It does not have that function but you will find out that you will not need it ( if you do you need to get out more ):p:

I like the third post here, not sure if true but have to say if it is well done VM :D:D

Yes. There isn't a 'Copy to DVD' function, you have to watch what you are archiving

However with a 1TB box there is less of a need to do it

The TiVo Premiere in the States has the option to transfer recordings to a computer (as long as they're not tagged as protected) where the can be burned to DVD/Blu-ray. No idea whether VM plan to add this functionality to their TiVo though.

No there isn't. Might be a few weeks before the next one.

Maybe they will and the official launch will be put back a few weeks? :D

We need this VM email so that we know what's going on.

That's not a bug though :) a wish to change, but not a bug.

I was pleased to read that the full BBC iPlayer app is now available via TiVo with the entire range of programmes that are available on the web version. It was always annoying to see something available online only to find that is was unavailable on the VM version of iPlayer. So, better late than never and well done Virgin. Does anyone know if there are plans for a full 4OD app along the same lines?

Where is this email, cannot believe VM left it right to the last day of March, my earlier email clearly stated late March.
