Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

My TiVo is now running and i would like to give my general thoughts on the box as i have one now.

Initially i thought the picture not to be as good as my V+ but it seems to have got a bit sharper,i think perhaps TiVo has as been suggested on another thread needs time to "bed in",certainly on outside broadcasts the TiVo picture appears dark until the subjects are in clear view certainly viewing the cricket and a tad wooly.

Like the you tube app works very well and you tube is something i use a lot.

The remote record is also a great feature i set a recording from a PC and it did the job,expess series links works well also no missed recordings so far! or ends cut off,i do as i thought i would miss the reminder feature on the box hope virgin will add this feature soon,also miss having the clock on the front but thats a minor point.

Overall i am quite impressed with the TiVo box and what it can do although the engineer who set it up gave me a demo of the thumbs up on "my family" a comedy that i find a very unfunny sitcom, and i forgot to delete it and found i got programmes recording that were similar until i deleted the thumbs up.LOL.

I hope sky sports red button arrives on TiVo soon,but i did keep my old samsung V+ in the bedroom so can watch red button content there,but would like it to launch on TiVo before the cricket season.
