I do not agree the TIVO box is coming along nicely and is getting better each month.
But its not the FULL package that they advertised it as. MY garden is coming along nicely - But it is not Kew gardens!

I quite like TiVo but things are not appearing as quickly as i thought they might for the platform,i lsten to radio and LBC had a change around in their schedule a while back it took the TiVo EPG a couple of weeks to catch up.!

I know its radio but for a service we are paying for its still not brilliant looks around for Mr Waring before running off.

Tivo is not using the BBC Red Button as is standard with every other box. It's a BBC app. And not a very good one.

Not sure what to make of that. Reminds me of someone - but for the life of me can not think whom. If I remember & say - I may ( or not, as the case may be) get sued !!!

Re: BBC Red Button

Another thing l am disappointed with in the BBC apps is the lack of a weather section as l am sure that there are quite a few people who check for this on the old Virgin boxes.

And other things as well , local news & sport for a start . Can not see the TiVo ruling our roost anytime soon.
