Thanks for checking, was hoping a reset would sort it. Was just concerned when I checked the V+ box and that was fine!

I think a Virgin Media player Tivo App is in development. Which i think would not require a tuner ? This would be good news.

Our Virgin Media Player service is getting better and better (just added Sky Anytime) and we're putting a lot of work into bringing it forward and interacting with the TiVo world, so it's certainly a developing picture.

Why would they do that, Virgin Media Player is a way to access on demand on devices that aren't your TV.

So what does Nick O mean then ?

Using some features of TiVo with the app, maybe viewing recordings on your box from it or set recordings without having to go to the guide page/app. Or more likely branding recommendations after you've watched something 'TiVo Suggests' on the app.

All it states is that they are hoping to involve the player in the world of TiVo it makes no claims at all about what form that interaction will take. You as usual find a quote and add 2+2 and get 6,543.

Are you always so rude ?

It will probably be something like you start watching on your Tivo and it will automatically pick up where you left off if you switch to a mobile device. They have said this is what they want to achieve eventually when they first launched Virgin Media Player.

It will probably be quite a way off though, so don't read too much into it HD Boy.

I'm not surprised the way you continue to keep posting these pointless quotes why don't you stop jumping to conclusions all the time.

Yep not far away now, for those that are not aware Spotify can only be accessed on your TV if you have a TiVo box.

You will soon be able to enjoy Spotify on your TV too, exclusively with Virgin Media: TiVo® Service. If you’re on Spotify Premium, press Home on your TiVo remote, go to Apps and Games and you’ll find Spotify. All your playlists and favourites will be there, and you can browse for and star music as normal. We think it’s the best way to listen to music through your TV, ever.
No App is there yet but it should not be far away.
