Neither TV Go nor TV Control has ever offered viewing of recordings whilst away from home.

What TV Control does allow for, with a TiVo/V6, is in-home downloading & streaming of recordings. And if you download, you can usually then view offline.

TV Go - with a TV360 - allows in-home streaming.

Apologies to op hijacking the thread, also interest in this.

I have a V6 box and am away this weekend and would not mind watching recording in the evening, rather the waiting until I am back next week.

What TV Control does allow for, with a TiVo/V6, is in-home downloading & streaming of recordings. And if you download, you can usually then view offline.

Assuming the V6 has made the recording on Saturday, how do I watch it on Sunday at the other end of the country ?

As per my previous post, you can download the programme to your mobile device (channel-dependent) whilst at home, and then (channel-dependent) watch the recording whilst away from home.

You need to be at home in the first instance. Your other option is to see if the programme is available for mobile-streaming via TV Go.
