nope - does not work.

 

Perhaps if I was lucky enough to work in the VM office it would work - NOT

 

I smell a rat, why cant they just tell the truth and admit it sucks?

 

If we are not all BETA guinea pigs then I would hate to see the version they released on them.

Re: Problem with On Demand

Had tivo since april, slowly we have stopped using OD,on V+ we used OD daily and only ever had "high demand" message a few times.
With TiVo, Music OD went first, no search and with the ads and audio drop at the start, then Iplayer app, cutting off end of programmes, tryed with SkyAnytime, freezes and very slow.
When we do use OD, like last night, half way through the show, STOPS! Tivo tells us OD unavailable and kicks us out to home menu!
Given up! Only thing good about tivo is the storage!
--------------------TiVo is NOT the best way to watch TV EVER!

Re: Problem with On Demand

Can someone from VM please clarify what the problem is here?

 

Is it signal? Is it intermittent? Will I ever be able to scroll through OD before I retire?

 

An answer would be appreciated!

By the next update do you mean the one that is being trialled in the cambridge area?

 

And when is it planned that the trial will finish and the roll out begin. I hear before christmas - is this christmas 2011? The first world war apparantly 'would be over by christmas' when it started.

 

I find it unbelievable that you can issue SW updates with such fanfare of proclaiming things like sky anytime launch on press releases yet you fail to notify anyone that it is actually unusable at present. Surely this is in breach of advertising standards?
