You can also check My Planned Recordings to view the status of upcoming recordings. You may need to press the blue button until it says "show (all)".

What programme it is?
Sometimes Recording Hiccups is wrong though. I've found programmes in there that had actually successfully recorded (though sometimes this is due to it recording the HD version & not the SD version and vice versa). Other times it simply gives an incorrect reason eg "no longer in guide".

As a result, I don't take much notice of the reasons given and just check if it was shown via going backwards on the EPG, check whether it did actually record or not and, if not, search for a repeat showing. If it hasn't set a future recording up automatically, I set a manual recording.

If it was shown, but TiVo didn't record it and it isn't available via VOD, I set up a Wishlist for things I really want to see.
