Hasn't picked up the channel list
Selecting ToDo for upcoming recordings, it seems to be manually selecting the options that you would from the menu to get to the reccording screen, unlike the iPhone app that goes directly

:(

Yes I agree, seems pretty poor to me even if things did work properly. TIVO Commander is a million miles ahead in my opinion.

They're all companies that gather your information and make a point of 'sharing' things. I still don't get why a glorified TV remote needs it.

Probably because you can (from the Market description):

Possibly more importantly it's a copy of a paid for app, so probably worth removing.

You're looking for this:

It's here:

You'll need the python script running (or equivalent if on windows) before it'll work.. FSVO 'work' as it's not really suited to the UK Tivos yet, as you can tell from the channel idents..

So a Netflix app has arrived on the UK PS3 it would be a great addition to VM TIVO especially if VM could negotiate a deal like Spotify.

I agree , can you imagine a Netflix and a Lovefilm app , a streaming only sub to both would probably cost less than Sky Movies however both companies need to quickly start HD streaming maybe then I would ditch Sky Movies.

Hi, does anyone else have a problem with the iplayer app on tivo, am finding that the sound is constantly distorted, and sometimes the picture is very slightly slow moving!
