If customers get TiVo DF could it be quite a while before they get Red button on say sky sports/BBC or do virgin aim in conjunction with TiVo to get it up and running quite quickly.

Re: TiVo

Sorry, another FAQ maybe (I did search)

How do I change the default recording padding ? I can obviously see the padding options in the series link settings, but it would be nice to just add a default 5 mins to all recordings.

From what I've read, you can't do that ATM.

TiVo didn't have it, so it's something VM are going to add at some stage.

Just went through to the other room and snapped a couple of quick picks to compare the size of them both (this is a slim PS3, I have an original boxed up so it can stay there) as I have one on top of the other...





Pretty nice box eh?

If it's going to be added later then fair enough, although it might be sensible to just change the current default stop time to 2mins. I don't think that's going to cause any complaints.

I would imagine there will be more complaints from people who set the series link and then don't go in to change the padding options and end up missing the end of all their shows !
