The older recordings.
However, I thought the idea of reminders was so that you could watch something there and then. So it won't take up any space on your Tivo as you will either cancel the recording when the reminders pops-up or delete the recording when you have watched it. Right?

If the above are the default settings then I would say that was probably the most common way of using Tivo and should be considered normal use.

And I was referring to your use of reminders for creating "background" whilst you did other things. Nothing else.

See about. This shouldn't happen
But yes, setting
some things (not
everything) to KUID is a good idea.
PS I've had a bit of a crappy day so
if that's affected my posting style I apologise. (Can't say it has for certain but the way my brain works - ore doesn't - you never know
