The only reason we have stuck with 3.0 is that we have now modified it enough that one image will run on all hardware (Sony, Philips, Thomson, TiVo) making support for the group much easier.
Some people prefer the loopsets in the Sony or Thomson images to go with their machines, but we do not encourage using them and at this point we have no intention of releasing updated OzTiVo versions.

Thanks Peter, as a note I am current working on localising the images HDR, SVR 3.0 and the PVR 2.5.5 for NZ. Basically not much to be done just a few tweaks and they are well progressed.
It does tie in with some significant emulator changes to bring the NZ system inline with the OZ system. I tested the UK tivo here and it would not work on the existing system, but they do pass the new headends ok with a little emu cgi tweak.
---- update --->
The first New Zealand customised ozTiVo ISO images have been created and released on orac for testing. (call it beta at this stage looking for some feedback from testers)
Location: ftp://orac.caffeine.co.nz/install_images/
There is one for the HDR-x12 (philips) and one for the SVR-2000 (sony).
They are both version 3.0 as per the ozTiVo images.
Minor New Zealand specific customisations have been done such as working directly with the NZ emulator.
This should make the installation process painless, and coupled with a new emulator rollout shortly [1st March onto port 8000] the process of setting up a TiVo in NZ should be significantly simplified.
