The reason there is more content available is that the TiVo app is pulling it from the BBC's online store for iPlayer via the built in cable broadband connection, rather than the content the BBC provide Virgin to load onto their VoD servers for the existing platform.
Which presumably also means TiVo catch-up is not affeced by the "stuttering pictures" bug? Me sees another reason for VM to quietly forget about this known-issue and push TiVo :-(
