BBC iPlayer
BBC iPlayer takes a long time to load, and when it does get there, there is a lot of 'buffering' and freezing. This goes on for a while, and the the programme stops altogether. The only solution I have found so far is to shut down my TiVo box altogether and then re-boot it. Any suggestions?
The TiVo is now double-digit years old, which by current standards is elderly - and it never was brilliant at handling streaming apps. In technical terms you are probably describing the in-built modem failing and this causing a loss of internet connection - check the front-right of your TiVo for a flashing heartbeat light when the problems happen, for proof of this.
Reporting your TiVo faulty should result in a tech visit and replacement with a V6. Runs the same TiVo-software but on a much newer and more capable box, providing you have VM home broadband.
