TiVoHD fast forward bug

**MrGadget** · 24-04-2010, 09:19 AM

Disagree slightly - I've seen it on 2xFF, but I do believe it has been during the news (which is usually being recorded while I watch...)

It certainly could occur on other FFW speeds, but I only use 3x for Ad's etc.

The only thing that seems certain is that it only occurs if catching up with a show while it is still being recorded.

I don't see it enough to be concerned about it.

We have also seen it during a show also previously recorded.
I am beginning to wonder if it is the S3 remote, as the other day it sent a button which definitely had not been pressed. I guess that could still be a bug on the TiVoHD.

I don't know of anyone else who has had it occur on a previously recorded show.

Is it possible that the show was recording when you started to watch it, but had completed by the time the bug occurred?

I have a gut feeling that it usually occurs at the point the recording was up to when you started to playback.

Yes this is possible

It nearly always occurs towards the end of the show, say 3/4 of the way through.

After consulting the wife I can confirm this bug also occurs on pre-recorded shows. Also it is not the remote at fault, as it happens after a few seconds of fastforwarding.
I never got a response from TiVo support regarding this.

I ran into it the other day, so rewound past that point and it did the same thing again... and again...
Seemed to hit one part of the recorded video then jump everytime.

Good to know it is on the recording itself and can be repeated.

If it bugs you contact TiVo support, if enough people complain it might get fixed.
