I've had my TiVo since Thursday. There are a few niggles (slowness, incomplete EPG, lack of catch-up) but, generally speaking, I'm pleased with it. That is, until this morning.

I turned on to catch the morning news and after only a few clicks on the remote the TiVo seized up and would not respond to any button pushes. I was left with the programme guide and the BBC News channel in the top right corner box. I could not find anything about this in the troubleshooting guide and I did not want to turn off the box as I was recording the F1 grand prix to view later.

I left it as it was and went out to buy a paper. When I got back the box was working normally again. I've no idea how long the freeze lasted for but at least 20 minutes.

Has anyone else experienced similar freezes or know if there is a known problem?
