Now, my adviser extraordinaire, following your nasty accusation that I am a noggin, I looked through the precious manual and could not find any reference to holding the Standby button down for 5 seconds to shut off my TV. I can read manuals far better than you can, but none of us are perfect, so I may have missed it, but I don`t think so. But I can read !

To make a positive contribution if it is possible, are you able to explain where in this magic manual it says about the 5 seconds Standby hold to shut down the TV ?

Oh by the way, this magic manual is so brilliant that although the index shows page numbers for each item, the pages are not numbered. Some more noggins present in the world besides Wittmann eh ?

OK, a couple of things. I thought speaking to people in a patronising and condescending way was your normal method of communication (see your post quoted above) so thought I'd use a style you'd understand (and appreciate). It appears that you can give it but can't take it so please accept my sincerest apologies for speaking to you in the manner you use when speaking to others. Now you realise it can be upsetting to be spoken down to, I'm sure there are many other members here who would accept your apologies for the manner you've used when speaking to them.

A copy of the instruction manual for the Tivo can be found here. Page 33 paragraph 8 seems to be the bit you struggled to find. All pretty well numbered and easy to follow.

Next bit of help. Have a look here using the internet to look things up isn't that hard. With a bit of practice I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.

Cheers

Grim
