New Tivo software update apparently
Noticed this on the official VM Community forums for Tivo
Quote:
We are aware that some customers have been experiencing some slowness when using their TiVo® service recently. We’ve listened to the feedback and have been working to understand what the problems are and how we can fix this. We want to ensure that we give our customers the best service we can and have been testing a number of changes to help speed up the boxes.
We’ve now started to roll out a new code to all our TiVo boxes to help make our TV service quicker, the plan is to complete the roll-out throughout the rest of November.
|
Apart from one or two comments the other week I've not heard anything official until I read this just now.
Hopefully this will have the desired speed effect.

Re: New Tivo software update apparently
I sincerely hope it's successful as I am getting really riled with the slowness now.

Re: New Tivo software update apparently
No real change on my TiVo, still pretty slow but in all fairness not as bad as some have reported on this forum

Re: New Tivo software update apparently
Ours updated a couple of days ago and my painfully slow Tivo has improved. I do still get black screens when using My Shows but they only last for 2/3 seconds and, up to now, I have not seen the spinning circle. Fingers crossed my writing this does not jinx the improvement.

For a Cisco box it's 20.5.7.RC24-VMC-2-C00.
For a Samsung box it's 20.5.7.RC24-VMS-2-C8A.
Will the V6 be getting this, or doesn't it need it?

Re: New Tivo software update apparently
Having a V6, you will know that it doesn't need any speed increase. It's already on 20.5.8 anyway.

Thanks, there aren't any speed issues with the V6, but I wasn't sure if this update did anything else or would have to be sent anyway for completeness, compatibility etc.
