TiVo : TiVo Update/Netflix

[BenMcr]

Of course, with the new standby setttings, if you've got it to automatically go off, it will do, even if it doe wake up for an update

Hmm anyone have this happen. If youre watching a show from my shows then press pause on the show. Then go looking through the on screen tv guide then go to press the info button to read up on another show. When you press clear to take the info screen off the screen. That automatically starts the my shows show youve paused playing again. Bit annoying to say the least then having to re pause it again is this suppose to happen ?

Was going to say the tivo is pretty much perfect too. Since the update till this happened lol Plus the issue once something is set to record the info about that show can no longer be read. The tivo is awesome now imo bar these two problems.

How do you hook up the TiVo box to your home network, is it straightforward to do!

Arrived in Hemel area, at last - and last! I noticed that that the default Tivo scaling option has changed it's behavior slightly. I have the video output set to 1080i only and I now see a difference in image size between, for example, BBC 1 HD and BBC 1 SD where the SD image is slightly smaller in width. With the previous version both HD and SD where displayed exactly the same size. Went through the video options, switched all resolutions back on including 1080p accepted them which then had BC 1 HD and SD images the same size. Went through the video options switched back to just 1080i and BBC 1 HD and BBC 1 SD images the same size. Curious.

Just had to reboot for the third time. Box now slow ,really poor over all . Will swap with V+ if this keeps up much longer

Really impressed with the update I have to say. The box is so much more responsive it's like having a new bit of kit to be honest. Great to have Netflix and the Youtube DIAL support, better power saving and the extra HD menus too. The fact it only uses one tuner when there are back to back recordings on the same channel is also a major improvement. Very pleased.

Some boxes have crashed after the update so I wonder if you are in that situation, support call required? Most people's updates have gone fine and the update makes Tivo much better.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I like the update. I'm not fooled by the neat menu transitions into thinking that it's faster, although the channel changes definitely are, but it just looks and feels so much more slick. Mrs M, on the other hand, hates it.

That's a bug. Noted

It doesn't happen if you use the full guide instead, by the way.

Hasn't that always been the case? Here's an old post about it

Finally I have recieved it. The whole update is very good and Netflix has really surprised me. I am very impressed with some of their foreign film selection, I see many hours of movie watching ahead, after I have finished The Muppets Christmas Carol, that is. :-)
I, personally, can see an improvement in the menu speeds, and an impressed with the new menus and guides. Much more clarity.
Top notch update in my eyes, well done to all involved!

Hmmmm. My TiVo has just rebooted itself right in the middle of watching a show on the Netflix app. I've rebooted it maybe once or twice since I've had it (about two years) but i think this is the only time I've known it just crash and reboot without intervention.

Ok thanks any idea if there working on a fix now or waiting till the next update. Yes the info when record thing is set has been there all along , was just mentioning imo fix these 2 things and the TiVo box is about perfect.
