Oh dear that is no good! I was hoping someone would be able to help. I will have to turn the channel off then.

All eight testers have reported that the fix has worked, with no issues during the automatic update. So I think it's time to roll this out to whoever wants it. In most cases, I can schedule this automatically. To do this, you need to send me your Tivo Service Number TSN.
To find your TSN:
From TiVo Central, select 'Messages & Settings' -> 'Account & System Information' -> 'System Information'
The TiVo Service Number (or TSN) is the number starting with 663-

Send me this number via email to mc682001-audiofix@yahoo.com (make sure that you put audiofix in the subject). I will then schedule your Tivo for an update. The update will occur overnight. If the update worked, your TiVo will be restarted and you should get a new message:

When audiofix is running, you should see a banner in the top left of the screen when in TiVo Central:

Feel free to publish the email address elsewhere for people who do not read this forum.
Note: Please use the email address above and not forum private messages. The forum PM system is awkward to use for this purpose.

This morning straight out of bed to see what happened overnight and...
Tivo has been granted yet another life! ABC is back, squeaks are gone.
Many Thanks Matt.

I second the motion.

Matt auto-updated my (85 y.o. tech-illiterate) Dad's TiVo and he is delighted. So am I since I didn't need to travel to manually intervene.

Thank you.

Matt as there will undoubtedly be TiVos operating with owners on not on the forum what plan do you have to roll the patch to them?

It?s also mentioned on the Whirlpool Forums, and my website also links to this thread now from a message on the front page.

Also selfish plug: you might notice in my signature and on the website I?m now also doing Fetch

[AjFrankling]

Mine also worked fine. Thanks Matt!

If you need the audiofix, the preferred option is to request an auto update by emailing me at mc682001-audiofix@yahoo.com. So far it's been installed or is scheduled for install on about 40 machines.
But if you have a early modded tivo, or for some other reason the auto update does not work, and you have command line access to the TiVo. You can do it manually by logging into your tivo and typing the following commands

cd  /tmp
wget http://hd.oztivo.net:8000/static/swupdate/OZ-update-v3.snow.bnd
tar xf OZ-update-v3.snow.bnd
tar xzf swupdate.tar.gz                                         
./update.sh

This will manually update your TiVo in the same way as the auto update (it will reboot at the end).

To re-iterate, please request an auto update first. This will be much easier in terms of support. The manual option is only really for those TiVos where the update failed, or you need an update in the future when I've stopped scheduling them.
