I got that with the Update on Tuesday, still a little too much for me, I think we need a Red Button channel like YouTube. I have found the quickest way is to search for the show you want in the Tivo Menus tbh.

Going by VM usual standards, we should have it by the end of 2014.

Doubt it, the Netflix app is run by Netflix.

Yeah possibly, took us ages to get the TiVo update that arrived in the States yonks ago.

Virgin Media had to make a deal with Netflix for it to arrive on the Tivos over here as VM is a closed system. Its not that Netflix was part of the update. Otherwise it would of arrived and there wouldn't be 6 months off deals.

Well considering there are those sorts of channels for the other bits, I'm sure it'll come at some point once everyone has the app.

Hope that's true but how can you be so sure? Do you have a source?

Virgin Media and Liberty Global have stated at no point that the TiVo will be replaced and personally l cannot see that stance changing at least in the next 10 years.

Option 4 for 'change package', then pick the option 2 for 'TV'

Re: TiVo Update/Netflix
 
Is anyone finding the information on the new planned recordings screen for shows that won't record inaccurate?

For example, it is saying that a repeat showing of Dracula won't record because there is not enough disc space. But the real reason that it won't record is because the first showing will have already been recorded (first showing is showing as set to record).

Similar things are happening with other shows.

From LG's perspective, moving everyone over to the new box would seem to make the most sense. Let's hope that because Tivo has been so successful for VM, they will adopt an 'If it aint broke...' attitude.

But I don't see how anyone not privy to high level management can say for sure that LG won't ditch Tivo for Horizon.
