Yes worked fine when I used my mobile to set up a recording of The Simpsons.

All I need to do now is get VM out again as the engineer has somehow messed up when he put the V+ box in the other room as I can't get a picture through the DVD recorder now

Not sure how much to be honest mate but I believe it was mentioned as a possible add on in the future.

And how is a reminder going to? At least if you set a recording you know it's going to be there when you do finally remember you want to watch , you don't miss the programme if you forget you set a reminder


Yes, but that was only used when I was not in to watch stuff because you could only watch something after it had been completely recorded.
For heavens stop now!!!!

In addition to new deployments it is hoped the TiVo software will be downloaded into a part of the existing installed base. “The current V+ HD, ie non-DVR boxes that we are sourcing from Cisco, are compatible with TiVo, so we could drop TiVo onto those, but the Samsung DVRs are not, so we would probably launch DVRs that we would source from Cisco initially and they would be new to requirements,” said Berkett.

It may help you.
Looks good. That not being included seems to be the normal complaint from magazine reviews....

Yeah would be nice for you all if it was included or at least an upgrade for a nominal fee.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

my wife loves music on-demand, since we had tivo installed today she been having a play and is not impressed, every video we play after the ad for filmflex the audio is blank for the first 4-5 seconds, even without the advert as its no audio????

Info does nothing, and ok switches to the channel. Had to manually find the late night showing which kinda defeats the purpose of having tivo!
I had this issue to, seems if a show has not started you can find future airings but once it is on you can't.

Also is it me or can you not tell what time a recording started and finished only how long it is?

No problem. I'm thick-skinned too. It was more your general tone that I was meaning. Describing other people's opinions as "utterly wrong" or whatever it was (can't remember right now!) is not right.

Anyway, end of subject.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Can I just say that if people are unhappy with things why do they not start off a thread similar to the ones that I started about the prices for existing customers. For some strange reason they seem to have listened ( as if they seem to be reading the thread and poll ).

So start one and hope that it is the same reaction as my threads? To try and get things changed
