Unfortunately, due to the way that Tivo works, simply popping up such a reminder does not seem to be possible. No-one knows why for certain. So they implemented it the best way they could.

And l for one am just happy that we in our household can set a reminder facility even though it records at the same time because that way we don't miss our favourite events plus if somethings crops up we always have the recording to fall back on just in case.
