Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

I use zero padding, but for BBC shows, I often check my planned recordings and if there is a tuner free, I add 15 minutes on to the end.

I don't record much from BBC, so it's not an issue for me to do this.

You can also extend the recording, even when the recording has already started.

did it over-run? It should have added 4 mins padding automatically.

Not sure I only watched it today , it was on BBC2 Three men go to New England

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

Thanks DF, the question that leads on from that is why, there was an overlap between two recording but at the time of the message only one tuner was recording?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

Its just checking that you arent watching two channels:). Not as stupid as you might think as I have scrolled back on a channel that was being buffered.

Had an interesting one the other day. Recorded Cutting Edge off Channel 4 HD. The program recorded and showed the correct program details and channel in My Shows, however when I played it back it was an hour of Bio and not 4HD at all!!

I tried an experiment with VM app setting a tv programme record and I can confirm it adds no padding to the scheduled record show! In relation to the show three men in a boat as I had recorded it showed the programme started 2 1/2 minutes late and that's why you missed the end of the recording!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

Had the same issue with blades of glory this week. Missed last few minutes.
Set recording via either the virgin app or the tvguide app. Not sure which one I used.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

I don't think you can set extra padding with these apps:( I suppose this TiVo upcoming app will probably marginalise the above two!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

A quick question on TiVo as i wlll be getting one in january,is it possible to remote record from the VM website and also phone apps although i do not think there will be an app for my nokia N8 which runs the sybian software.

Also how many apps for the TiVo are there at the moment thanks.:)

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

You can remote record from the full website, the mobile website or the app if supported by your phones OS

Currently 15 apps on my Tivo

Not long now, Rich :) Excited? :hyper:

I love my TiVo... I'm going to get one for the bedroom too as the SA V+ is so noisy :D

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
 

Too old DF to get excited mate ;) but looking forward to getting it now i have ordered it to see what it does.:)

I have a samsung V+, as my old S/A V+ bit the dust on the tuner front a few months ago,its not noisey and is going in the bedroom,with the TiVo on the main set.

TiVo does sound good just think i will take a while to get used to it by the sound of it,and seeing as its still quite new hopefully the best is yet to come.
