Yes, give it another go. It did have problems last summer and you are right, some programmes were not watchable. It works well for me now.

BBC Red Button takes a second or two longer as I now get the new "one moment please" red circle and then the BBC white circle as before. No big deal though.

Re: TiVo Update/Netflix
Can't wait till the roll out is complete, to see if there will be any kind of discount in the offing.

Re: TiVo Update/Netflix
Right had a play around on my parents TIVO box , the whole thing seems a lot more polished , am I imagining it or has the apps section changed , the icons for the apps seem to ping off the screen far nicer looking. The option to change the guide using green button from grid guide to live guide is nice , I actually prefer the Live grid if I'm honest. The Netflix app works as expected and loads quicker than people seemed to suggest , I also love the ability to play off Netflix direct from search all in all an excellent update.

Just found this myself a little while ago, and yeah myself (and more importantly SWMBO) prefers it too.. so that's that sorted, set on that for a while anyway!
Had a clear out and re-order of my SL's today and it worked seamlessly without any issue, love the look of the new screen and the fact you can still watch live TV and it doesn't freeze up the TiVo.
In fact I've only seen the red ring once today and that was me hammering through menus to test the speed.
Most impressive for me is the new Planned Recordings screen, it just looks so much better and easier to read.
The font is definitely slightly different, also noticed a couple of other things am not sure where there before
- In TV Guide, did we always have a Jump to Now option by pressing Stop?
- In My Shows, when I go to my other TiVo at bottom, a big graphic of a TiVo appears
- The TiVo icon has changed
- The busy icon is now got gaps in it
A big well done to VM/TiVo for this update, now to start a thread for suggestions/ideas for the next one!
TV Android app is next, and then we can say it's been a great year for VM

Absolutely Den , if I was nitpicking I'd like to be able to play a Netflix asset direct from search rather than the current implementation of being took to the asset in the Netflix app and having to select play again I'd like a similar method to playing iPlayer content from the backwards EPG , not sure if this is possible and its only a minor quibble.

I thought iPlayer took you to the app and you had to press play again as well?
