Reminders.

Favourite tv programmes an option to choose your favourite tv programmes. So when that programmes on a gold star next to the thumbs.

Faster UI.

Just one improvement:

Ability to remember where you are in the TV Listings when exiting and then re-entering the guide. Being able to type in the channel number to jump to that channel in the guide helps, but I miss the V+'s ability to remember where you were.

Was there an additional update last night? My son said that the Tivo rebooted itself in the middle of the night.

The ability to set as many reminders for a particular time spot.
Here's why, As the reminders appear having set them up earlier
I can then determine which programme I want to watch right
then and what to record if any without having to trawl through
the EPG again. This in my opinion gives you a viewing menu
made personal and is a good way of setting up your Telly!

No it's just it probably does it loads when you are not looking.
I'm sure that is why the uptime has been removed as my S1 Tivo had that and it was always nice to see it had been up and running for hundreds of days....

If you're in the Cardiff area, all STBs were rebooted overnight for some network engineering work.

Text is part of the red button.

Text is part of the red button.

Whether it is or not the point is neither text nor red button services are available on TiVO yet, therefore people are requesting them.

Maybe you missed the point of the thread and should go back and read it all again. From the start. Paying attention this time.

They are requesting something that will not happen because the red button apps will appear at anytime and no Software update is needed.

What you've just posted basically says "they want something they won't get because they will get it eventually" which is contradictory and makes no sense whatsoever.

The title of the thread says "next TiVo update", not "next TiVo software/firmware update". Technically that means anything new counts as an update - not limited to a firmware update - including the Spotify app that came out less than 48 hours ago. Therefore red button/text apps count as updates and people have every right to keep requesting/mentioning them until they are available to all TiVo STBs.

That's about as straightforward as I can make it.

I agree with Stephen on this one.

Just because Red Button functionality exists in 15.2 firmware basically means it doesn't count as a feature until it is enabled and available to the end user, which is why people are continuing to request it.

For example, I have a bike I bought for my son. It has wheels, but those wheels aren't mounted to the bike, so technically the bike is available but cannot be used until I update it by fitting the wheels. Until I fit those wheels, the bike is not enabled and available to the end user, i.e. my son, and he will continue to request it until the bike can be used.

If that childlike analogy doesn't explain it to you, I doubt anything will.

Ask Den what the title is actually meant to mean.

I class that as the next software/firmware update.

2 people on the first page think the same thing.
