I think this runs contrary to what TiVo usually does, and could be considered a weakness of this VM version of the firmware.
Not so sure about that though. I thought it the US most programmes stay on the same channel until they reach 'syndication'. Therefore it's less likely to have multiple series of the same thing on different channels compared with UK?
