Hard to say without knowing what recordings you have set.

It may be recording an earlier showing instead - it always records the earliest available. Check My Planned Recordings.

The one thing I find annoying about the TIVO is that when the recording circle fails to come up, you've then got to search through the system to check that it has recorded at another time. Why can't it tell you either when the alternative recording has been placed or alternatively that it has been unable to find an alternative time?
Some will say that it normally does find another time, but this is not the case for BBC and ITV. I missed the last few episodes of 'The Americans' because the Olympics overran and there were no alternative showings.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Am losing patience rapidly with Virgin and their CS. Call them once a week about the box freezing when changing channels. They keep saying they will pass it onto their technical team and the situation improves for 2 or 3 days. Then it happens again. Will be calling tomorrow and demanding that an engineer comes out and looks at it. Might even see if I can get a reduction on a 1TB drive if this one is faulty.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
My box had a warning pop-up last night.
N33 I think it was... "network availability".

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Ditto. Never got around to calling them today, will do so tomorrow. This is getting beyond a joke now.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Latest official info from the VM forum team
Hi guys,
Whilst I am not privy to specific dates for specific regions, I have had this checked and all is on course to be completed before the end of the year. With only 55 days until Christmas I think it is perfectly safe to say that it won't be long until we are all in awe of the Plum goodness
Take care
Huw

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Seems hopeful we'll all have it by the end of November. Do suggestions get better too?

Not that I've noticed. Suggestions are now generated on a server, not in the box, so changing the box software shouldn't affect the way they work (or don't).

Some customers were chosen to trial it Vince and dependent how that went then the staggered full rollout would highly likely begin after that.

It was a expansion of the trial and not the roll out
