Evening Folks,
I've recently signed up to VM and I must confess to being somewhat disappointed with the TiVo experience thus far. I am hoping that most of the issues can be fixed (or worked around). I've been a sky customer for a long time and I wasn't able to get it in my new flat so I've switched...appreciate there may be too much of an element of comparing it to sky here but I never had any issues there.
I have the Big Kahuna bundle. The TV selection is great and I love all the HD content but I do have some queries..
- The TiVo box is very sluggish indeed, simply scrolling channels seems to take an awfully long time
- Is it possible to set the guide so that it doesn't always start on channel 100? It's annoying that it doesn't start on the channel I am currently on (I know I can press OK but I prefer the full guide)
- I have set up a favourites list but every time I set to view favourites, it works for a short while but then reverts back to the full list
- There don't seem to be many shortcut keys eg to add a channel to favourites without going to a nest of menu
- Creating a series link records new and repeats by default, so I rack up a lot of episodes very quickly. I know this can be changed but it seems incredibly convoluted to have to go through so many menus to change every show
- On Demand is crap and very slow to find shows, box sets are also surprisingly limited
- How do I set a reminder rather than "remind and record"? I don't want to record everything I set reminders for...so I then have to cancel and delete the recording etc..
I know some of these are arguably nit-picking, and have no doubt been covered before, but they all add up and it really does have an impact on the user experience and I'd like to change it as so far the thought of this for another 17 months is somewhat disheartening!!
Thanks
