If I go away for a few days I would normally switch the box to "Standby" - I presume I should do the same with TIVO, but will it still record the programmes I have asked to record when I am away and the box is in "Standby" mode
also
I think there is a USB port at the rear - I haven't checked but the book suggests there is - am I able to insert a memory stick with AVI movie files on it and they will play ?

No problem leaving it in standby. All planned recordings will record.
The USB port is not customer useable!
Good luck and enjoy your TiVo!

A single tick means that show is scheduled for recording. Sometimes if you select a show for recording and subsequently select a series link, the first scheduled show will only show a tick but if you scroll down you should see the next episode will have the multi circle "R". It seems to be one of the many quirks of the TiVo.
