Selecting ToDo for upcoming recordings, it seems to be manually selecting the options that you would from the menu to get to the reccording screen, unlike the iPhone app that goes directly

Yes I agree, seems pretty poor to me even if things did work properly. TIVO Commander is a million miles ahead in my opinion.

They're all companies that gather your information and make a point of 'sharing' things. I still don't get why a glorified TV remote needs it.

Probably because you can (from the Market description):

That is *not* the Tivo android app. It's a 3rd party remote app (http://androidapp.lisisoft.com/apps-...ivoremote.html).

Possibly more importantly it's a copy of a paid for app, so probably worth removing.

You'll need the python script running (or equivalent if on windows) before it'll work.. FSVO 'work' as it's not really suited to the UK Tivos yet, as you can tell from the channel idents..

Is there going to be an Tivo app for the blackberry

So a Netflix app has arrived on the UK PS3 it would be a great addition to VM TIVO especially if VM could negotiate a deal like Spotify.

Yes it would be nice to get this as a Tivo app.

I agree , can you imagine a Netflix and a Lovefilm app , a streaming only sub to both would probably cost less than Sky Movies however both companies need to quickly start HD streaming maybe then I would ditch Sky Movies.

Agreed as if l could get the above mentioned as apps l think many would dump Sky Movies.

Hi, does anyone else have a problem with the iplayer app on tivo, am finding that the sound is constantly distorted, and sometimes the picture is very slightly slow moving!

[muppetman11]

Up at parents house , a quick TIVO question when going back to last nights Casualty which has the C at the side of it , when pressing it just takes me to catch up on demand and not the show ?

Can take up to 48 hours to be 'linked' direct to the programme in iPlayer
