Yes it's not available right now. Will be soon though.
That said, I use my Tivo to watch TV and nothing else. Though I know everyone's different.

I seem to be pressing buttons all the time to do simple things..

I've put a wishlist in for Alan Sugar/The Apprentice. Will it recored the new series by itself or do I have to set a SL? I can see The Apprentice on BBC One hd listings but theres nothing to say Tivo will record it.

Should do. Though I'd use a SL as it's only on the one channel.

Typing anything is so time consuming, but in other places in the menus I can use the number keys like you do on a mobile?

Again, not yet but soon.

Thumbs up only works in certain menus/pages for me..
|
Yep. Me too. They might fix that. Not sure.

..and how do I get info on programmes without going deeper into the guide/menus?
|
The "Info" button.

...and Tivo seems to be getting slower the more thats on it. When I got tivo installed I said to the engineer how fast Tivo was, but he said it slows down the more thats recorded on it. It appears to be correct at the moment??

Pass. Only at 12% myself.

I dont understand how SL works on Tivo. Ice Road Truckers recorded tonight clashing with my other recordings even though I set IRT to record on the saturday morning repeat. How do I set a SL just for the saturday episode? The V+ had no problem with this.
|
That's because the V+ only dumbly recorded the episodes you set it to record. Tivo is more intelligent and will always record the next available airing. To record a specific showing you will have to set a Manual Recording; thus defeating the whole object of having a Tivo

In View Network Diagnostics the Port config test says "Failed".

This is correct.

It takes longer to change channels...
|
Mine takes no longer than my SA V+ did and is due to it flushing and restarting the buffer.

|
... and when I go into different menus I lose picture and audio for a second.
|
Yeah. Menu changing does suck a little at the moment.

And most of the sd channels are shocking, for example, euronews was so blurred and soft when I flicked through the news channels for the wedding, wont even mention SkyLivingit.

They look fine to me but then I don't have an HD TV and my eyesight's not brilliant anyway
