OK, possibly it's new in the 15.3 software, in which case you'll get it within a few weeks.

Yes. That'll be it. I know I wear glasses but I don't think I'd miss a comma if it had been there

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Anyone else having issues with the TiVo box this morning? Changing channels is slow and sluggish, sometimes it takes up to 5 minutes for a picture to come through. Watching a recorded show as well took ages, as once I hit fast forward it was static then went rushing forward about 5 minutes so I had to rewind and have the same problem. Getting annoyed with it, and tempted to kick it to see if it helps solve it!

Would a restart of the box work?

That's normally the first course of action in cases like this. Just make sure you pick the one that just re starts the box and not the one that deletes series links etc.

If that doesn't work, try unplugging the box for a few minutes.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
I made sure I did the correct option, and it seems to be OK now. Thanks.

I want one of those slide remotes. Are the US slide remotes compatible with the VM TiVo's?

Mostly, yes. With just a couple of omissions but nothing critical.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Don't you need a Bluetooth dongle for the U.S. slide remotes? As far as I recall they also have the red/green/yellow/blue buttons differently placed. I may be wrong (so the Wife tells me)

I believe the remote comes with the appropriate dongle
