Re: TiVo Update/Netflix

I thought the 6 month Netflix offer was a limited offer? Sure I saw that in a post in this or the Coming Soon thread.

No there isn't; that's the way Netflix is designed to work. Blame it on the 'I want it instantly' culture

Thanks Den, maybe an area fault then. Odd that one of my boxes is working though!

Re: TiVo Update/Netflix

Had the update in west London and the menus do seem speedier for me.

I don't have a Netflix subscription. Can I sign up for the one month freebie through them direct and then the six month freebie through VM?

Re: TiVo Update/Netflix

Well impressed with the new update the menus load a lot faster now and I like the little graphical fade with more menus in HD. I always found the jump from HD menu to SD menu really jarring and slow.

Den, this is listed on the service status page at the moment for me, so maybe the issue:

You might not be able to watch certain programmes on Catch Up TV and TV On Demand on your Virgin TV or TiVo® service at the moment.

Fault reference: F002769772

Does anyone know when the offers ends? End of November? End of December?

I've also got that reference here in Newcastle as a fault however I am still able to access my Netflix App, and indeed select something to watch so this fault reference obviously refers to some other issue.

Re: TiVo Update/Netflix

All updated but only got a quick look before work this morning.

From what I saw it looks good, menu fade a nice touch and was particularly impressed with the look of the planned recordings layout.

Hats off Vm & TiVo
