Re: Tivo Arrived

["Tony T" <home@xxxxxxx>]

Got mine this afternoon as well :-)

And despite initial misgivings I'm already taken with it (it'll be great fo= r
replaying all the goals against brazil!)

Slight problem I'd forgotten about was that I've got an ntl pace 1000 stb..= .
As this and Tivo are in node 0 (loft) to change channels =3D
Remote -> ir rf extender -> Tivo -> redrat -> ha pc (convert to= ntl irda) ->
ntl
=3D quite a time lag in changing channels :-(

So I just rung tivo to activate and ordered one of there convertors for the=
pace.
Hopefully this will be quicker, and will replace the current x10 control of=
ntl via ha pc (which is accurate but slower than I'd like, but I'll still use it for all the other remote functions though).

=A399 + =A329 well spent :-)

Erm... please don't do that..

If you want to spray paint the case, then there's a _bit_ more to it than "point and shoot." :-)

.... like, removing the innards, blanking off the vents, then spraying, the= n
drying for 24 hours, then re-assembling :-)

If you do this, let me know how it works...

Regards,

Mark
