Thanks Digital fanatic, got my box yesterday so trying to sort out the features that I used to often use on my old set up.

BTW is it possible to change the BBC local news region. We get the London news whereas we are really in the Southeast region. The ITV news is Meridian & again SE would be handy.

On my freesat box I had to put in a different postcode from home because I got the same problem

Has any noticed on BBC ONE and BBC ONE HD that the EPG said BBC News was tonight on from 20.27 - 20.30.

I never seen this before on the TiVo EPG.

As a rule if you press record while viewing, a programme will record:-

1. from the start and can be found in my shows providing you are less than 30 minutes in as this is the maximum size of the buffer which will be stitched on the front; or

2. Everything after the last channel change for that tuner.

When a film has a rating out of 4 stars where does that come from? Can you rate the films?

True, makes you wonder then why the V+ has reminders then with a deadicated channel 0:erm:

Just takes a bit getting use to treating live events the same as watching a purchased movie.

Finally in the next few months now the 15.2 update is completed they will remove these 2 confusing TiVo channels from the EPG?

What an absolute joke iPlayer on TiVo is.

The lack of multi screen was a shambles from the start but a software update that renders the service virtually unusable. :shakesheadindisbeliefsmilie:

The star ratings are from Tribune Media Services, which provides the programming listings to many TV books across the country. TMS uses reviews from several sources - including Variety, Roger Ebert, Leonard Maltin and Videohound - to determine its star ratings.

For some reason the old youtube app has now got a new logo.

I think that is so you know that it is the Old youtube app.

You would think so and then Virgin Media could just put the Live events on channel 0 on Tivo like all the other Virgin Media boxes.

Ok let's forget about the red button apps coming with the update.

They will still be a update in January/Q1 2012 and which going by what i have read will make Multiroom streaming fully enabled and there is probably other things not annouced yet.

I am really hoping Express Series Link is made user configurab​le in the January/Q1 2012 update

As far as I'm aware there has been no official announcement about any further updates either way.

Ben, I was pretty sure I read somewhere that the red button for mutli-screen for BBC and Sky was going to be introduced on TIVO by the end of the year. Did i dream it??? (it's quite possible) If I did is there any word on when it might come. I'm holding off on Tivo until it's working....cheers pal :)
