Tivo updates-what is in the pipeline?
 

Does anyone have any info on what is being updated on Tivo?
By this I mean, what apps are coming, what changes are being made to interface etc?

I know there is another thread regarding niggles and problems, I'm hoping that a few things are changed quite soon as I thought these options worked quite well on the V+ service.

1. Searching is a pain in the proverbial (especially music on demand etc) with no alphabetical seaching-wife keeps moaning at me about that one lol.
2. No page down option when using tv guide.
3. No option to display programme info in the mini guide (unless I'm missing it somewhere?)

Thanks
Rob

1. ..
2. is achieved with the channel up/down buttons.
3. is to be fixed.

Press channel down for page down.

Press Record instead of Info.

(Shouldn't these be in the niggles thtread?)

Re: Tivo updates-what is in the pipeline?
 

Yeah I think so, also they are answered in that tread too. ;)

Re: Tivo updates-what is in the pipeline?
 

Thanks for the answers.
I did originally say that I know there is a niggles thread, but the main point is I think there should be a coming soon to Tivo dedicated thread-maybe the admins can set it up?

Thanks

The problem with that is that no-one actually knows what's "coming soon to Tivo". We know some of the things they are working on and some of things we hope they're working on but I don't think it's enough to fill a thread with on-topic posts :). Look at the "Coming soon to VM" thread for example :eek: :D

There was a list, with approximate dates posted on the Tivo community forum, but it was withdrawn for some reason.

It listed such things as two tivos being able to access each other to watch on one tivo what was recorded on the other.

As always us the customers are left in the dark until we get this tivo update which could be a long way away.

Perhaps it was because people were whinging "Why do we have to wait, why can't we have it now, why, why, why?" or "but that hasn't got the (fill in as applicable) which I must have now!!" incessantly....:D

VM = Virgin Mushroom

I think I had some of them when I was younger and I still had no idea:confused:

It's worth popping over to the Virgin Media TiVo support forum and first off get yourself on the beta trial if you're up for it, but also get in touch with NickO. He single-handedly convinced me to stay with TiVo rather than revert to V+ based on upcoming fixes and features.

There's good stuff coming, and although there's no formal list detailed on the forum, you should pick up some good signs in the posts there. They often quote internal bug tickets references, which shows they are logging the stuff and working on fixes.

I think they are probably still reeling from the fallout of such a massive product release (I'm talking impact to their systems, training and processes, more than the actually launch numbers), but given a month or two we should see things ramp up again.

Yes l will pop over to that forum to check things.

Re: Tivo updates-what is in the pipeline?
 

Or perhaps,and I know this may sound very radical.....Why did'nt VM and TiVo get their act together before launching the TiVo system,oh no,instead we as customers have to pay £3 a month extra to act as Beta testers,brilliant!!!:rolleyes:

Re: Tivo updates-what is in the pipeline?
 

You don't actually have to. VM seem to be allowing people to return them within a month. If you don't think it is worth it as present, ask them to take it back.
