Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

its a big step up from a normal virgin box. It's all fairly easy to understand and the onscreen help is nice but it isnt always obvious what button does what and where

biggest issue seems to be EPG being wrong on a lot of channels, went to watch everybody loves raymond and it was king of queens but the box was telling me it was raymond an EPG makes or breaks a box for me..

cant go wrong with Morrissey !

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

My Virgin insider has told me tonight that Facebook and Picassa apps are both testing on TiVo ahead of launching on Virgin Media's TiVo.

No info - but Virgin need to test things out to see if they will work on TiVo before launching them so viewers will not see them before launch dates.

I do not know they launch date at time of posting.

I did as well so they must have just put them there as a mistake Before they have tested them. Just my opinion?

Shame they didn't do that with YouTube app...

---------- Post added at 21:08 ---------- Previous post was at 21:07 ----------

In the review posted earlier it mentions about the 2nd stage of the CPU will be activated at a later date which will make the box faster. Why hasn't this been activated already?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Our Tivo box has become very slow over the last week or so. We had put it down to having 47% of the drive filled but perhaps it is a common problem. We haven't had an update to the box for a few weeks so perhaps one is in the pipeline which may address this issue.
