It did not take much research to discover that red button would not be on the initial release, if that was important to someone.

A excellent unbiased opinion of the Tivo.:tu:

It's true. The only problems with TiVo ARE "minor niggles". There are perhaps too many of them but it is, on the whole, an excellent piece of kit.

Anyone know how TiVo decides which channels to record its suggestions on? I have them from the "audio definition" versions of main channels that and right now its recorded a programme from one channel, and then recorded the very next programme on the same channel, but one from the SD version of the channel, the other from the HD version.

Mr K is cancelling his install for next week and he's in Harrogate, so not far. Might free up an appointment for you? :)

Sounds like a problem with quota on the system. I know TiVo is very popular, but that's not normal! lol

Thank you, I have gone the whole hog and ordered the 1TB machine, no more worrying about trying to fit all the lovely HD on the V+, although I am keeping that machine as well. :)
