Thanks spj20016, btw, great tip.

It shows in blue when a software download is happening. You are only likely to see this is you stay up late a night.

Or when you reset the box as well.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
I have questions as I am thinking of getting one
- Is Tivo having trouble with SD pictures, as per gadge?
- If, when Tivo has taken it into its head to record a 'suggestion' at the same time as the other 2 tuners are recording, (which Gunslinger informed me about) can a person cancel the 'suggestion'?
- Has Tivo got the new test SD Channel that MB has seen on channnel 890. The new channel is called ''Test 43'' and is also broadcasting On Demand Previews plus EPG info is showing the same info as Virgin Channel 100.

- Some have reported poor pics, others are not affected, mine is fine (Sony Bravia) Firmware update due to fix this
- You can cancel the Suggestion if you wish
- I've not looked, maybe someone else can check?

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
Me thinks that the TiVo prioritises such that it will record programmes you want in preference to ones it wants to record for you. If you aren't watching live TV then the TiVo can record 3 programmes simultaneously.

I too would like to know, hopefully someone in the know can drop some hints.
Was looking forward to watching Barca-AC Milan last night until I realised it was on that damn red button!
