TiVo 15.2 update rollout details
MediaBoy's blog has the details of which region's getting the update when. Three areas kick off on November 17th (Basildon, Grimsby and Nottigham) then the rest follow from the 21st. Full details at http://mediaboyblog.blogspot.com/
It looks like the update has come earlier than expected. http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/TiVo/TiVo-update-dates/m-p/841825/message-uid/841825/highlight/true#U841825
Starting from the 15th November anything recorded from the Sky owned channels (eg, Movies, Sports, Sky 1) onto a V+ or TIVO will not be available to view if you decide to take these channels off afterwards.
@openviews - where did you get the information? I always have Sky Movies for a month over Christmas - will be a real pain if this means I can't watch any films I record once I cancel the Movies after a month. :(
It's always been the case on Sky but VM customers apparently could watch after cancelling the movies or sports - I don't think the Virgin tech could do it before but can now.
Sheffield is not on that list. Any idea when it's coming to Sheffield
ReplyDeleteThere is 50+ regional headends
ReplyDeleteand Sheffield is under the barnsley headend
I take it Bolton will come under the Manchester banner then?
ReplyDeleteAll of Glasgow, Paisley & Renfrew are fed from the Renfrew headend, which isn't mentioned - so there's no consistency!
ReplyDeleteBuzby:
ReplyDeleteI am from Paisley.
100% agree and the Glasgow Headend is actually called the Renfrew Headend !
so my update will be on the 24th as my
ReplyDeleteheadends this in Seven Kings .
It looks like the update has come earlier than expected.

ReplyDeleteHad a message on our TiVo's this morning to say the update will take place around 2am between the 17th and 24th November.
ReplyDeleteWith regards to not being able to watch recordings from channels you are no longer subscribed to, I thought this was always the case?
