ITV red button working OK here in Plymouth for me.

For the last few night my Tivo keeps telling me there are network issues and some features are unavailable but instead of letting me browse My Shows it dumps me back at the main menu.

My Tivo EPG is only updating 6 days ahead at the moment and most of the channels l have checked are like that and they are usually 12 to 13 days ahead in their programme data and also why do l have to press a pin number everytime l go onto Attheraces.

I am currently on the VIP50 package with the main box being a 1TB Tivo and the extra box is a V+ box, which I have in my bedroom but it one of the first V+ boxes and is very noisy and keeps me awake at night. I phoned up just now to see if I could swap the V+ box for a 500gb Tivo but was told that I couldn't do that on the VIP package, I have to keep the V+ box but can get a 3rd box which can be another Tivo box. Does anyone know if this is the case? I'm sure I've read somewhere on here, that other people on this forum have VIP packages but have all Tivo Boxes and not V+ boxes, or have I imagined that?! Thank you.

This could still be done, I understand, on the TiVo if I didn't want to watch another channel at the same time. However, is there a feature on the TiVo that allows you to make it play a selection of your recordings successively (like a playlist) without manual intervention?

Yes, you can play all of a folder by pressing play when the folder is highlighted.
They'll then play in date order one after another (oldest first).

Go into Settings->Network and see what it says for Last attempt and Last status. You could also try telling it to connect now.

It should tell you on the screen why it is asking. What does it say?

Does it know the current programme title for ATR?

At the time there was no programme title listed so it just said type in your pin or something like that and also on the second point of the EPG showing only 6 days ahead l will go into settings/network and see what it says and if needed connect again.

We had quite a lot of problems last week with the TV going off-line, and we were advised by the person who phoned us to ask whether our new TIVO box

was working OK that there was major work being done that would be finished by the weekend. I am pleased to report that we are back to normal now, so hopefully all is well with you too now.

Incidentally, the guy told me that we would be getting Lovefilm video streaming by Christmas. Can't wait for that!

Did the Tivo Team tell you this ?

Great! All I need to know now is how the recordings get into folders and if a folder can have a mixture of different programs inside it?

The recordings get in to folders if you set series links, But I do not think that it is possible to set up a folder to have different content in?

ozsat · 23-10-2011, 17:07

Not tried it - but what if you create a wishlist of the different programme titles you want in one folder?

HD Boy · 23-10-2011, 18:21

What does this mean

Quote:

@virginmedia You said the red button would probably be rolled out once the latest update happens 3 days ago...so this has changed now ?

@Rich_Grove This wasn't the main update we have planned, we have another one coming very soon to rectify this. KD

I thought Tivo software update version 15.2 was the main update ? Could there be a tivo software update version 15.3 this year ? or do they mean the pilot update is not the main update and the main update will be in it's fully rolled out
