Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

Am I right in thinking that If I order a 1TB it would cost only £49.95 which includes activation/installation? or is it £49.95 for the box and another £49.95 for activation. According to their website its free activation

Also i just rang CS and they recon they would charge me £1.50 a month for the Tivo instead of £3

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

Its £49 install fee and £49 activation fee for the terabyte

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

So if I wanted just the 500gig I would just pay £49.99?

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

yes

you should also be looking at the Existing customer part of the website: http://shop.virginmedia.com/existing...x-upgrade.html

If I went with 500GIG one and then decided to upgrade to 1TB an idea how much would I be charged?

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

£49.95 for actvation and £49.95 for installation = £99.90

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

so £50 to get the 500gig tivo and then say a couple months down the line i want to upgrade it would cost £99.90? So in total it would cost £150

Yes, which it's worth going for the right one first time

As far as im aware yes

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

The thing thats concerning me about the 500 gig one is that if tivo records progams it thinks I like then does this not eat into the memory i.e hours of recording?

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

Nope. The suggestions don't count towards recording space - so they will be deleted for your recordings

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

OK so 500gig (250 hours of recording) is based on my records not the suggested hours. What about HD how many hours of HD can be recorded? As I can see myself recording more HD content.

I've read some where that sometimes the suggested records cause clashes with planned records and can take preferance.

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

It's around 60 hours of HD recording. I have never had the situation you describe with the suggestions.

Re: Thinking of getting 1TB Tivo but have some questions
 

HD Recording is 59 hours. If there is a clash between a suggestio and a planned recording then the suggestion wont recording in favour of planned recording

You could record more once MPEG-4 gets up and running
