Hiya..

I'm reinstalling my Tivo.

Which is the correct image for a Phillips?

Or...

nzTiVo-Philips-Installer-Aug06TWP.iso 94526 KB 8/15/2006 12:00:00 AM

I think it's the 8/15/2006 version, but just wanted to check.

Cheers,

Old on is the TW (tivoweb), new and current one is the TWP (tivowebplus) one Aug. correct.

Thanks Dude.. :)

I wonder how many hours at best quality I'll have for recording on a 40gb disc?

Rule of thumb is divide by 2 for "High" and 2.5 for "Best". You will have about 16 hours.

If it's an original TiVo drive, it won't have much life left in it.

Good to be forewarned. :)

No, it's from a PC.. I'm stealing the 120gb disk out of my tivo :)

(yep, too cheap to go buy another disk) ;)

That should be better, but still not great. TiVo really stresses drives.

Yep sure does.. the 120gb one has some bad sectors on it, though they dont show under a windows scan.. meant audio dropping off. Had to 'keep' recorded programmes so that those parts of the disk weren't used again in tivo.

If I am being too picky, then just ignore me, but would it be possibly to edit the main sticky post at http://forums.oztivo.net/showthread.php?t=1167 (unfortunately closed) to reflect the new filenames of the images and resolve the confusion zollymonsta had?
