Ok, I am sure I actually replied to you a few days ago and told you the answer to this. The coming TiVo software update will enable red button facility however the actual red button apps will not appear right away.

So please stop repeating yourself.

Just pure unsourced speculation in my mind.

If it does come i can see it being the same as the version thats built in tvs we also have it on our sony blu ray player in line with your love film sub if you have one we have unlimited streaming not the best collection of films but the odd gem there plus it keeps the little one happy.

Does anyone know if the 'Copy to DVD' functionality of the V+ is planned for a future update of Tivo? Also will the latest update fix the 'connection not permitted' popup I get every morning? (apologies for not doing an extensive search but it's lunchtime at work!)

Connection reliability: HDMI and SCART compatibility improved.
No one has reported any "connection not permitted" problems since the update.

It turns out there was another fault (not the ticket number above). It was fixed last night, but you might still need another service connection to get your data to update.

Nearest we may get is custom folders
(pre release screenshots of the TiVo Premiere showed custom folders like "Dad's shows")

i.e. "add this show to a folder"
"select folder / make new"
which will achieve much the same thing.

Batch playing is listed here:

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Tivo announced an Android app a while ago, the same time as they announced the iPhone App (iPad app had already been released). So far though only the iPhone app has materialised. Then I expect there will be a further delay to port it over for use with VM Tivos.
