RE: Tivo Channel change? Re: Tivo vs Sky+

[<mailinglists@xxxxxxx>]

It sounds like you're getting reflected IR.
The IR from the blaster in the front of Tivo bounces around the room and
then hits the Skybox, sounds like you've moved something which is causing
reflections.
A chap on the TivoCommunity forums had this a few weeks/months ago as a
result of buying a new sofa. I think he fixed it by using  the stick on IR
lead.

Sorry for hijacking this thread but I'm having this happen to me pretty
much
once a day at the moment.  Does anyone know of a fix for this?  My tivo
has
been working fine for months, but suddenly the channel change has gone
ropey
(ie when it changes to sky channel 121, sky receives 122 and then a 1 on
its
own)  I've tried changing to the slow/medium and fast skycode IR settings,
but no real change (although when testing, it works 100% flicking through
the channels, but seems to fowl up when recording.

Anyone had this problem and fixed it?

Matthew
