news:[email protected] My cable company moved one of the networks from Channel 3 to Channel 33 on 3/1/05. TIVO has not yet picked up this change so the only way I can record programs is by a manual program for certain times on Channel 33. Will TIVO pick this up eventually or is there something I can do now to force the change? Usually happens automatically, but calling customer support or reporting a lineup issue online can ensure they are aware of the issue - sometimes the local providers make changes but fail to notify the people who maintain the guide data when they do.

When a better model comes along the cable company gives it to me for free. Mostly, cable companies just say nothing about new models being available, and customers don't get one until the one they have breaks. This does make it appear that cable companies are quite good at notifying customers about new DVRs, though, because they tend to die often enough that customers get new models quite often. -- Jeff Rife | | http://www.nabs.net/Cartoons/OverTheHedge/Olympics.gif |
Back to the original subject of this post--TIVO fixed the channel problem a
couple of days after I notified them of the Cox Cable change. James "James" wrote in message news:[email protected] My cable company moved one of the networks from Channel 3 to Channel 33 on 3/1/05.

Next time I go on vacation I'll be sure to buy a car instead of renting one for a week. Right... Man, Sean, your logical arguments are so stunning. _Of course_ Kenny meant to say "in every situation, including short-term usage". He simply left it off to be concise. The fact that the thread (and the newsgroup) are about DVRs shouldn't be enough indication that he might have had a more specific statement in mind. BTW, the next time you go on vacation, _IF_ you happen to be in the market for a car, it _WOULD_ be a better deal to buy instead of renting (assuming shipping it back wouldn't be prohibitively expensive). Kind of like, _IF_ you want a DVR, it's a better deal to buy instead of renting... You guys are such friggin Dolts. It just amazes me. Let's see, should I buy a DVR that will be obsolete in a few years (or in some cases a few months) in ADDITION to paying a monthly fee of $12.95. OR Should I "rent" a DVR for $10 a month which will get replaced with a new model when it also becomes obsolete. Hmmmm, $3 less per month PLUS free hardware upgrades..????? Geee which is the better deal????? Are there any Harvard Business school grads on this NG who can help me out???? Sean |

Next time I go on vacation I'll be sure to buy a car instead of renting one for a week. I think that may be the worst analogy I've seen on usenet in years. BTW zit-ass, the better deal is very much affected by what a person wants their DVR to do. It's a very objective issue. Geeze. The stupidity in this NG amazes me. Me too. I think a one man crusade for a very insignificant purpose is very stupid and a waste of that persons time. Sean K |
