At least you get the box replaced free if it's at fault.

Now 5 hours into my Tivo experience, and the volume is cutting out when I change to a new channel. Have to go back and forth a couple of times to get it back.
Is this common?

Interesting. Are the new ones Samsung built or still Cisco?

Wonderfull Virgin Tec. just left. Fitted a new box and all now working okay.
As Tivo said there must be an installation fault and there was, even after fitting new box it would not work so Tech. had to go outside and make good a faulty connection.

If TiVo is giving so many people problems i think i won't bother upgrading to it yet until the rather annoying issues are resolved.
