Reordering the Now Playing list?

I don't like the way that the Now Playing list has all the suggestions
at the bottom. Is there a way of telling Tivo to present the list
entirely in date order, with the suggestions interleaved with the
normally recorded programmes? I have a UK Thomson TV, with Turbonet if
that makes any difference.

Cheers

The only sort that apparently has an effect on those items in the NPL is
Alpha. Both Expiration and Recorded order sorts them to the bottom.

In my [limited] experience I would say the answer to your question is
no.

Dosent sort suggestions though, except in Alpha. The OP wants to sort on
Date.

My mistake. I don't find date order all that important so I guess I just
overlooked that in the original post. Sorting by date recorded seems a
little like a VCR function. That is, I don't care when it was recorded,
I care about what it is, perhaps when it might be deleted.

This isn't exactly what you want but when you go through the
suggestions you can change the keep until date, after that it
will be treated as a normally recorded show and not a suggestion.

Not on a UK machine no.

There's a a TivoWeb module that let's you sort like that on your PC screen
if thats' any use.
