I'm not happy about paying extra for a box which gives me a worse picture than I had before. I'm going to give it a few days, then maybe I'll change back to a V+ box.
I'm trying to compare tivo and v+ side by side. As I dont have two identical tvs or two cable feeds in the same room I cant How have you managed to get around this problem?
