just checked, Mark, you can get rid of the groups by pressing the blue button on your remote. And if you want it sorted by date rather than alphabetically, press the yellow button. That should resolve it for you.

Thanks for this review.

have you used the youtube app?

Is it any faster in loading/searching if you used it before?

Yes, I didn't have to wait as long as before for YouTube to load and selection of material was fairly quick too.

Of course, I can't guarantee that everyone will have the same experience as there are issues in some areas that do not affect me (touch wood!).

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3

On the new Tivo update, does it still have sound effects when pressing on icons?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3

Probably. This could be why only small areas got this update first, that way any glitches can be fixed before rolling out to everyone else. Sucks for those who have to put up with glitchy boxes but I would rather be one of the last ones to get the update provided it had all the glitches fixed.

I don't think so. The previous update was a disappointment, but this one is much better done, IMO. Much more stable by the look of it and that irritating problem of the EPG jumping back to 'today' when modifying a recording in the future has been resolved.

No complaints so far!

It was a disappointment for the reason I gave about the EPG in my last post, which was extremely frustrating, and because they messed with the suggestions. Everything worked more slowly than before - many posts in here about this.

You will see when you get this update that it is much improved and less clunky, although I cannot say yet whether that also goes for the suggestions.
