I appreciate that. What I mean is that those lucky few who have TiVo installed already or being installed this month will have to struggle on with two tuners until it gets activated. Where as those you get installed in March will hopefully have their boxes firing on all 3 cylinders.

This of course assumes it actually happens in March, there could always be a delay, who knows.

Unfortunately I do not know enough about the TiVo software to see how it copes with only 2 tuners. If a recording clashes I hear it is clever enough to pick up repeats later on that day (+1 channels) or later that week. So the only grey area is the padding overlap between consecutive recordings where having the 3rd tuner comes into its own.

Damn it, I knew I should have gone to the TiVo training day 10-odd years ago when I worked in Currys
