It's been fixed in Blackburn and It looks the Sky Anytime fix is still to be rollled out to all areas.

Just so you know, I'm in Blackburn, and it's still 15.1. Glad we can finally get to page two of the Sky Anytime lot. Just used to hang on Jade Goody Saved My Life, or something to that effect.

Re: Sky Anytime

Re: Sky Anytime

I have posted elsewhere that a known work around is to use the skip forward button (right arrow into a line above blue and next to slow) to go to the bottom of the menu and then scroll up.

I say confirmed but can't find the link now, maybe my brain has gone a bit mushy from reading the VM community forum too much!!

Re: Sky Anytime

Unless I`m missing something I can`t see where it says how many pages of films there are on the Tivo box but I can on theV+ box upstairs.
Sat with Mrs blackthorn last night and decided to have a look at the films. She made me give up after 20 minutes and watch live tv as it was taking too long to scroll through the films. It was taking nearly 1 minute to get from the bottom of the list to the next page.
Are there any lists of the films anywhere that I can print off and then use the search, maybe that would be quicker.

Re: Sky Anytime

A lot of people are asking if the films will be categorised, but if you have tivo, and as per Ben's post, the content shows up in search and browse, then it's done for you in browse> films> categories albeit this will show you content from other on demand sources as well. I almost never go in to the on demand menus any more.

You're not alone in this. Scrolling is about as fast as continental drift. On the occasions my TiVo hasn't frozen solid and needed a hard reboot I've given up trying to find a film and gone back to watching live TV. It's got to be because of the large number of films in the list. Hopefully the upcoming software update will help as will categorizing the films once they're all uploaded and available (hopefully very soon).
