Problems with Fall Update?
My Tivo did the Fall Update this morning, and now several of my
upcoming episodes on the To Do List have mysteriously disappeared. The series in question are still a part of my Season Pass List, but individual episodes have been dropped. No explanation is given for the potential conflicts. Anyone else having this problem? |

Give it some time. It is a major update and the DB is restructured, so it has to re-parse and re-build the TDL. -MZ -- megazone-at-megazone.org http://www.MegaZone.org/ Gweep, Geek, Human, me. http://www.TiVoLovers.com/ http://www.Eyrie-Productions.com/ -- Hail Eris "A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men" 508-852-2171 |

The series in question are still a part of my Season Pass List, but individual episodes have been dropped. No explanation is given for the potential conflicts. Anyone else having this problem? I wanted to explain a little more about the bizarre glitch created by the Fall Update. First of all, I have a Dual drive, so I can record two channels at once. For the first few weeks of the season, there's been no problem. This week, though, some dual recordings have been denied. For example, it won't record "Mad Men" on Thursday at 10pm because it conflicts with "ER," even though it had no problem doing it last week, and even next week's To Do List is fine. But here's the goofy part...it won't let me record "Mad Men" at ANY time over the next week. Even if I try to record a 3:15AM showing on Tuesday, it still denies the request, saying it conflicts with "ER" at 10pm Thursday. Go figure. Fortunately, everything looks fine for the upcoming weeks and all the dual recordings are lined up as they were prior to the Fall Update. Only this week's recordings seem to have this curse over them. Hopefully, this goofy bug will be behind me. |

I am having the same problem! For me, it won't let me record Ugly
Betty at any time without saying that it conflicts with 30 Rock and Earl. I also have a DT and this should not be an issue. While I was fussing with those trying to get it all to work, it told me if I wanted to record 30 Rock/Earl/UB, I couldn't record Chuck because Chuck conflicts with How I Met Your Mother. But Chuck and HIMYM are on an entirely different night than 30 Rock et al. I took UB out entirely, and the weeks ahead seem fine, so I may try to put it back in after this week and see if it doesn't mess those other things up again. Very annoying and confusing!

Does a manual recording of the data/time/channel cause the problem
also? Maybe you can work around the problem using that.... |

But Chuck and HIMYM are on an entirely different night than 30 Rock et al. Did it say it *conflicts*, or did it say the other show would not be recorded due to space, or would be deleted early, etc? In my case, I'd get one of those messages you get when programming in a recording, stating something like "the Tivo can only record only cable box program at a time, and the second program requested cannot be recorded due to the conflict," even though it had done the exact same recording the week before, and is scheduled to do the same thing the week later. And just to make sure, I'd manually try to punch in a recording on the "cable" channel (as opposed to the "box" channel), and it still wouldn't accept it. My drive has two huge drives, so space isn't a problem. As in the case of the other poster, we were getting messages clearly stating that recordings on Night X were conflicting with recordings on Night Y, which makes no sense whatsoever. Fortunately, the bottom line seems to be that this was some bizarre glitch in the created by the Fall Update affecting only the first week of the update and that everything seems to be back in order for the following weeks. At least for me, that is. |

My question is when I'm scheduling a new show and it says a show won't be recorded (within the next two weeks) because I'm out of space (because of planned recordings) will it record the show if there is space available by that time? I haven't run into that specific case, but it should record it if there is space. I'm guessing you have lots of stuff set up as "keep until I delete," and it is totaling that (predicted) space. A couple versions back, I'd get that "are you sure? something will be deleted early" warning every time I scheduled something. It was very annoying, and I'm glad it became less frequent. Or does it not record the show it canceled because of the space issue even if there is space? I watch shows on a daily basis and I know there'll be space available but if canceling just means canceling without "reinstating" if space is available - that sucks! I hope that makes sense. As I said, I don't know the specific case you are getting. But I'd guess that it isn't canceling it, but warning you that it might be canceled. For exactly your case, having it preemptively cancel the schedule would be a bad user interface decision. -- Drew Lawson | "Look! A big distracting thing!" | -- Crow T.
