On three occasions there has been a message saying that there was a 'serious problem' and that the system was fixing it. This always worked after about 30 minutes delay. Last night around 8 pm. the system froze. It halted mid-TV programme with the image frozen on screen. The Tivo did not respond to remote or manual commands. I resorted to rebooting via the power cord. This worked.



Does this experience indicate an existing / developing problem with my Tivo, or is this behaviour to be expected?
Think it might need to be replaced, never heard of this happening before TBH I would phone and report this problem and you would more than likely get it replaced.
