Personally, for me it's the five or six times you have to click View Show when you want to view a show from CatchUp after having found it in Browse TV.
It's the hidden meanings for vital buttons or as some others have found accidentally hitting a hidden meaning button and not knowing what it was.
It's the incredibly slow paging up and down in My Shows (this has got better with the update but is still painful).
It's the fact that you have to set Series Link options every single time you set one up (incredibly tedious but I think this may have been fixed in the new update I haven't checked yet).
It's the fact that sometimes when you delete a show about a third of your My Shows disappears until you reset the TiVo (thank the update for that one).
It's the fact that you have to enter your PIN code nearly every time you want to watch a show from My Shows sometimes even if the show was broadcast in the late morning or early afternoon depending on repeat times!!!.
Don't get me wrong I, like others, have got used to these complications and worse picture quality and for me they are now no longer an issue (and a small price to pay for the benefits of having a TiVo), but I'm just saying that newcomers might find these things overcomplicated initially.
Personally, the fact that I can set a wishlist for a director/actor is itself worth all the failings of the TiVo. That facility is just magic.
