Installed yesterday - it took me ages to work out that it wouldn't work with "Watch Television (Tivo)". Anyway, it's working now ....

So, is everyone setting the Tivo to turn on/off, or leave it on? I suspect leaving it on will be most reliable as there aren't separate power on/off codes (yet?)

Turning it off and on this morning, it seemed to maintain the buffer for the channel being watched, so I don't think it'll save on power or disk life, but does anyone know if turning it off makes a difference to receiver choice for example? Or does leaving it off for longer stop the buffering?

By the way - the installer told me that every single person he's installed for so far has had a S1 Tivo.
