Does TIVO pick up cable change?

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?

Thanks for any help.

Get your cable companies DVR. These issues disappear. Plus it's a much
more advanced DVR.

What's so much more advanced about it?

Another top posting twit check in.

Let me count the ways the CABLE dvr is far superior to the CABLE
Tivo:

HDTV
2 tuners
dolby 5.1
no phone line required
Disk useage indicator
Free hardware + hardware upgrades
More advanced Guide interface
Integrated On-Demand

Did I Mention HD, Dolby 5.1 + 2 tuners?

That's it off the top of my head.

Tivo is like a worn out VCR compared to the Cable DVR's.

What's with all this anal compulsiveness about top posting? Is it too hard
for you?

I get regular messages from Tivo about lineup changes. Not sure why you have
not. Contact them.

I agree with you, but only when people have the sense to cut out all the
excess and just leave the few important lines to reply to. It can be very
frustrating to have to scroll down 70 lines of text, looking for the 1 new
line in the entire post. Sometimes one line at the top is the easiest way to
go. Flexibility is the key.

Translation: You rent the hardware, and you actually pay about $10/mo for
the service (including rental).


Are you a Harvard business school grad? That's some mighty fine
analysis.

My analysis is that for Tivo you only make a downpayment on the
hardware. The monthly fee goes to the service and paying off the
hardware.


After a few years of paying the rental fee, you'dve paid about as much as
a TiVo costs. But you don't get to keep the box...


And it's such a great box. My series 1 is in my closet. Boating season
is almost here. I can always use another storm anchor.


A standalone TiVo works even if you switch cable providers, if you go to
satellite, or if you move. Try doing that with your rented Cable Co DVR.


God what a dolt. Tivo hardware will be obsolete in a few years. Just
check with your Directv suckers. All it will be good for is a boat
anchor. The cable dvr is no different than the cable box itself. When
a better model comes along the cable company gives it to me for free.

Which is the better deal?
