Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
For what it's worth I was updated last night.
Colour much more easy on the eye (except i think the plum n red clash a little bit aesthetically speaking)
Channel change seems faster
Bringing up menus seems faster.
Accessing red button and BBCi definitely faster.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Found it. When I first noticed the update I didn't have what to watch now in more to watch, but it's there now.
I'd forgotten about the Ilford discussion. I've nothing against the place generally but used to go out with somebody who lived there so now I tend to blank any reference to it!
I think generally the new my shows menu is better. I like the categories for movies, sport and kids. Not having to scroll through Horrid Henry or Tom and Jerry is a real plus!
The epg is immediate. The channel change banner changes immediately but the channel itself still takes a moment or two to catch up. If the speed improvements stay over time then I'll get used to the colour. The contrast between the new colour and the blue/yellow Sky or screen is much better fwiw.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
I've had the plum update for a couple of weeks now. Sometimes the speed is about the same as it was before the upgrade and at other times it's positively zippy. And sometimes it slows down to an absolute crawl and needs a reboot before it's back up to 'normal' speed. The speed for Netflix to load is pitiful. I have to really want to watch something to persevere.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Yes, the logo for music channel Heat is something that needs to be looked at, but apart from that no issues here. As I said, a lot better than expected.

 Interesting seeing this update scaled up on TV as it has been on my Anytime app for a while now!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
First Virgin tell me my internet will be crap until the end of January 2015 and now they bestow this hideous thing upon my Tivo.
Why does Virgin hate me?

You should do what anyone in an abusive relationship should do.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Not a fan of the new typeface, it looks like it was chosen more for its looks than for readability and accessibility. Too thin and letters too close together. Plus the mini guide is uhg-ly! Apart from that, a very nice update.
