and funnily i cant watch live tv either?
It is set to PAL -
i was assuming it was something to do with having no guide data.
but i've noticed that when i change channell on the TIVO although the Tivo screen tell me i've changed the Sat box doesnt change.
I've checked all the cables and even if i change the sat box channel with its own controller the tivo is not passing it through to the telly
I'm a right pain arent I!
Mike
Putting my old UK hard drive back in-
I can now watch Live TV but of course it wont change channels as the codes are for my old UK sat box.
when I change channels should i see the led's on the infra red blaster light up at all?
Mike
Yes :D , but more seriously you just seem to be unlucky.Quote:

Is I can't re-image at the moment as i haven't got access to my Main PC
I can't see how i can do it from my notebook.
Mike
That makes things difficult, but not impossible.
I'm fairly sure the system on the installer supports USB, so you could use a USB external case for the HDD.
I'd also be happy to do it for you, as long as you cover the postage.
Peter.
If you have video camera, doesn't matter how old it is, you should be able to see IR by looking in the viewfinder of the camera. Just aim the remote at the camera and look in the viewfinder. Easy.Quote:

Usually you see those messages on a fairly recently imaged TiVo, it normally goes away after 24-48 hours once the TiVo has settled down.
Peter.
so no help then.
Oh well :(
