Hi,

The only channel I can get on channel4 catch up is MORE4, where are the other channels? 
Point of information: My Tivo box is Old!

Can somebody help please.  Thank you

    C4 insist on using their own branded app for OnDemand, which the legacy TiVo doesn't have. You will either need to record programmes that you know you'll want to watch, or change your box to a newer one.

    You can upgrade to the newer V6, which runs TiVo software on much quicker hardware. Or convert to the newer TV360 which runs fundamentally different software on the same box as the V6.

    Faulty TiVo's are replaced with V6 as a matter of course, providing you have VM home broadband. Does your TiVo have any faults?

      Hi japitts, thank you for your reply. My Tivo is working fine, It looks like I'll have to replace it. Should I go straight to the TV360. I do have VM Broadband.

        Nothing stops you from a fault replacement V6, and then subsequently (if you decide) a software conversion to TV360.

        A comparison between V6 & TV360 is very much like a comparison between Apple & Android. Use the forum's search function to find innumerate past threads on the subject.
