Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

When setting a SL you can specify how many episodes it will keep. ie the lastest 5.

A star does mean it was recorded due to a Wishlist.
Thanks for testing. Will try it as a series link

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Had my Tivo install this morning and well impressed so far. Also the engineer did a number of downloads that resolve the "Days to settle in" took quite a while, but apparently the engineers are aware of these discussions and the extra install process was developed to address said issues.

If you are an Existing customer that should be the date:

Coming soon...
We'll be releasing our 500GB TiVo box in May for existing Virgin Media customers for £49.95. TiVo monthly fee and standard installation fee will apply.

If not you will need to wait until July?

Coming soon...
In July we will be releasing our 500GB TiVo box to all new customers for £49.95. TiVo monthly fee and standard installation fee will apply.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Is there any way of scrolling down a page at a time on the EPG, rather than just going down one channel at a time?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

I see in June Edition of What Hi-FI a review of the Tivo.
They have used it for a month connected to 46" Samsung LCD.
They say Picture and sound are Excellent ***** Five Star Product.

The fact that some people are finding the picture as good or better than V+ and some finding it worse (me being one) is puzzeling.

I wonder if there is a problem in the Cisco box production and some boxes are not being set up correctly?
