Thanks for that denphone mate,after the update during the film i did a maual re-boot and the picture seemed to improve it was very dark at the beginning of the film and got lighter,i thought that update was weeks ago.! 
Having said that after the re-boot i watched the film again from scratch it was slightly annoying but hey thats technology for you i suppose. 
I can recommend the film however it was excellent i give it 9/10 well worth watching,if you have not seen it yet.

Glad you've sorted it out Richard , £5.00 seems expensive

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Anybody having problems with their Tivo box recordings audio being out of sync? Watching live TV is fine, but watching a recording there is a small delay in the sound. Isn't going through an amp or anything HDMI cable straight to a Samsung LED TV.
Recording was made from Sky 2.
cheers

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Just saw this from Mark Wilkin on the help & support forum.
Quote:
We've had a technical hitch with our Virgin Media: TiVo service, which means we won't be able to show the last Football First of the season on your TiVo service this weekend.
We’re really sorry about this and hope it won’t cause any inconvenience.
Just so you know, you’ll still be able to watch Super Sunday Football and the Spanish Grand Prix.
Don’t worry – everything will be fixed very soon, so you won’t miss a moment of the new season on our TiVo service.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
If they make a hash of the Grand Prix on Sunday, that'll be something else to growl about.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Yes, however the problem is with the Tivo service. I'd like to watch it on our Tivo in the lounge using the 5.1 kit as opposed to the bedroom on a 32" from the V+

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Sorry, I may have misunderstood the original post. When I saw the reference to a problem with the Tivo service my assumption was that it would affect the Tivo itself (i.e. on all channels) I don't subscribe to Sky Sports so will be watching on BBC 1 HD. My mistake.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
When I'm doing a wishlist search for boxing I get page upon page of shows that are being broadcast on Boxnation, which I subscribe too. Is there anyway I can do a wishlist search which doesn't include shows on Boxnation? I've tried but without success.
Also is there anyway to search a specific channel for content? I've always enjoyed history documentaries on the BBC and would like to perform a search for this genre on BBC2 and BBC4 only. My current searches bring up tons of programmes from Yesterday and The History Channel.
If there is nothing I can do, does anyone know if virgin are working on improving / refining the wishlist facility?

Unfortunately, no.

Again, no. Wishlists are not channel-specific.

No-one knows for sure but I don't see why not.
