What's worse, is that frankly people have tried to do in this thread is help and instead it gets twisted into a war of words, and for what? I couldn't give a fig if a TiVo system is faulty or not, I have my own criticisms of the system after all. I just want to eliminate all possible avenues of investigation in case the TV is at fault. Refusing to try a different HDMI cable, and not acknowledging that the TiVo may be exposing a fault in the TV rather than the other way around is pig headed and stupid.

Someone who is right by luck is no better than someone who has tried their best and is wrong.
You just can't help some people

Re: TiVo

As promised, I said I would be back in 5 day`s time. It is under that but now possible to make my report. Here it is -

Since every post I issue is treated as an Aunt Sally in a coconut shy, to throw all kinds of personal insults at, or pick every word to pieces like some laboratory frog, I will be brief.

Life is now so good and full of admiration for Virgin and the CEO team.

Auf Wiedersehen.

Hugh, that is at least a very respectable comment and I sincerely thank you for it.

I would never have poked fun at the Anglians, they are a good example of the PBI and have suffered badly in Afghanistan. A decent para does not poke fun at fellow soldiers, their blood is not inferior to a para`s.

That is not a report, it is a statement.

What actually fixed the problem? Not everyone on here attacked you and it would be nice to know what resolved the problem. Was it just swapping the Tivo or swapping Tivo and the HDMI cable, or something else?

I would love to explain in detail, but as I said if I utter more than a few words, the dogs will be biting my ankles and I am not here for that kind of behaviour.

Technical interplay and exchange of opinions and data - yes. But not to be treated like some punctured football to be kicked around and insulted.
