If you have been watching a show for a while, IE from the start and say 15/30/45 mins in you decide to record it. It will record from up to a hour when you started watching the channel.

I was watching something for about 25 mins from the start and then pressed record and it recorded from when I first went to the channel

Hope this is clear?

Thanks, wasnt too sure exactly how this would work.

In my ideal world you would be able to browse the EPG, spot something that you would have liked to watch, and even though it had already started, hitting "record" would get you the entire show recorded. I suppose the "Wishlists" feature does this for you, up to a point.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Can someone please tell me if there is a way I can playback a recording at a specific time in hours and minutes like you can on V+?

If you have been watching the recording it will ask you to resume playing.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

No, but there are markers you can jump to every 15 mins. (30m in longer programmes and films). Plus it FF/REW's faster anyway so you can get to anywhere in a recording fairly quickly

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

See the little white vertical lines on the green time-line? "FF" or "REW" then "Skip".

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Has anyone that didn't pre-register tried to get a TiVo through CS in some way?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Asked this question on "Niggles" thread

Just been on to BBC1 I.Player.
All the shows seem to be available, and in order, but the times are wildly out !!

For example Sunday:

Andrew Marr says 12.10pm - should be 9.00am
Eucharist says 8.15pm - should be 10.00am
Story of Jesus says 11.35am - correct!
Life of Riley says 8.00pm - should be 3.45pm

Any ideas ??
