P.S. No ideas what "By having the and/or using" means.

If you go and have a look through some of the info pages you will see a line which says
Opted in = True
This means everything you do on the box is reported back to them.
On the real Tivo (old original silver box) you could set this to FALSE.

Just one problem, in the old Tivo box I used HDMI port to main tv and Scart (21 pin?) cable to Kitchen tv. In the V6 box there is no 21 pin scart and not sure what the scart output (9 pin) thing is. Since there is only 1 hdmi port , anyone have a idea to what I can do, use a scart coverter or something?

You might want to send it back as you are out of luck my son, the scart is disabled.
Progress is always forwards you know

Unless they've completely rewritten the underlying code base from the original that simply isn't true, on the old real Tivo suggestions worked perfectly with Opted in switched off.

You speak for yourself.
I have a VHS player with a built in DVD burner, that's SCART.
How do you plan to archive shows off your latest shiny-shiny..oh yes, you CAN'T

The law specifically allows it (for personal use only blah blah) but VM (and Sky also?) have seen fit to block your legal rights.

Can't stop you putting it onto VHS, take it out of the machine and hand it so someone else
Or even transfer to a DVD recorder...see, some of us have abandoned old fashioned tape...
