Good point.

Edit: Apparently, the engineer took the cards away and said that they are now "covered by the software".

Maybe a reboot after taking the card out will improve some people's boxes? Perhaps the delays are down to the machine reading the card when it doesn't have to??

Re: Major TiVo Update
 

Removing the card makes no difference. If it went faster, that would be because of the reboot.

Thanks for the info. SP.

I was hoping that we had stumbled onto something here (in a similar way that removing Suggestions is helpful) as one or two have said that doing this has led to an improvement in speed. But, as you say, a reboot helps anyway!

I've asked those who say that this procedure has led to an improvement to let me know if this is long lasting.
