Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
The update definitely fixes the bug where recording two consecutive programmes on the same channel causes the first to glitch at the point the second starts?

Are you asking the question or are you confirming the answer?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
There's a question mark on the end so I'm asking the question...

I'd like to know the answer to that one. It's my biggest TIVO gripe.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Will the tivo ever be able to do the HD swap on channels or is it not ever going to be able to do that?

Perhaps the word 'Does' at the start of your sentence would have clarified as you could have been asking a rhetorical question?

It would appear that the back-to-back recordings on the same channel pixelation problem has indeed been fixed on the 'plum' software update.
I recorded two programs on the same channel, both with default 1/4 padding, while the two other tuners were in use, and did not see any pixelation 5 minutes into the second program.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
I just had 2 recordings that overlapped on BBC1 and the pixelation problem still happened at the 5 minute point so I don't think it has been fixed.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
If you haven't had the update then it will be the same. If the menus are a disgusting plum colour then you have had the update. If they are still the same glorious red colour then you haven't had it yet.
Those who have had it, did the update interfere with any overnight recordings?

I hope it will never do it. See my earlier post on the subject.

If it was recording at the time of the update, the recording would be incomplete.

..so your experience is different than mine and we are no further forward.
Perhaps the issue has other factors, either local to your box or local to your network
