Cable Forum - TiVo General TiVo Discussion Part 2

That is rude.

The way it was said could mean it is now ready and just needs to be put on the TiVo boxes.

Also someone else said red button will come with the update in Q1 2012

http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...ht/true#M36542

We know the Q1 2012 is in January going by what someone was told by Virgin techinal.
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35...-post6215.html

No it wasn't at all.

Also there is no update in January or Q1 2012. The November update to 15.2 has been coded with support for red button services but as yet they haven't been switched on. It has been mentioned in this thread and others. All you are doing is confusing matters with repeated info posted in such away that it makes no sense to anyone.

To watch the event, go to Home->On Demand->More On Demand->Live Events->Your Rentals. Channel 555 is a left-over from the days when TiVo couldn't do pay-per-view through the menus, and is no longer needed.

I thought because of his inability to post for a week he would have been paying more attention to updates and news. I know I have.

If you want to get a message across, it needs to be clear and concise.

Wow. Back less than a day and already he's derailing threads.

Anyway, back on topic. I must admit, apart from the new YouTube app, occasional iPlayer app problems and that annoying habit the EPG has of falling back to All Channels 15.2 is a massive improvement and gets the TiVo much closer to where it should be.

I think maybe the US TiVo users should be thanking Virgin Media and it's critical customer base for helping improve their future products. According to an article I read, a lot of the problems we all harp on about have been there a long time and have prevented the TiVo from working it's way into the living rooms of all but the most ardent geeks.

What I'm saying is, we should keep up the constructive criticism, because as Virgin Media become a proper company rather than a merged version of various regional cable providers it appears they are listening to their customers and ironing out flaws as they go with more efficiency.

Because it is a Marketing mock-up, and they often bear little resemblance to reality.....

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Hope I am in the right place to make a query but is chaseplay (ie being able to watch a program from its start that has already started being recorded) a feature on the TIVO box, I have it on my DVD recorder but not sure how to access it on the TIVO if it is available.
