RE: TIVO - edit programme names?



Paul,

When you record from VCR to TiVo you need to make sure you choose the right
length program, so the scroll bar is the right length. For example if it
was
a home video that was say 6 minutes long and you forced a partial recording
that the TiVo guide said was an hour then the fast forward scroll bar would
be graduated for an hour rather than 6 minutes.  I got round this by doing
manual recordings, so I could choose the start and approximate stop time.
The only problem I found with this was when I renamed them via TiVo web you
still get them prefixed with 'Manual:'  which is a pain but liveable with
:)

Hope this helps

Mark

Subject: [ukha_d] TIVO - edit programme names?

Chaps, is it possible to edit the programme titles that appear in the
"now
showing" list?

I may want to manually record some stuff in from videotape, but obviously
I'll have to select a "channel" from the programme guide... -
I'll be
disconnecting the Sky box from the scart and hooking up a VCR in it's
place,

so whatever programme I select is irrelevant. However, it does of course

mean that the recorded programme will be incorrectly labelled, and I'd like
to be able to change it...

Can I?

is it easy?

TIA

Paul G.
