Below is the TiVo Bugs unofficial repository of bugs found in the UK TiVo Personal Video Recorder.

If you think you have found a new bug feel free to let me know, but please phone TiVo™ customer services first on 08702 418 486. I can not fix any bugs for you - TIVo™ can!

Let me know about any new bugs:

It is important to first know which version of the TiVo™ software your box is using. The software on your TiVo™ box should be updated to the latest version automatically when your box makes a daily call. The latest version of the TiVo™ software is V2.5.5. To find out the version your box currently has, Press the "TiVo™" button on the remote, select "Messages & Setup", scroll down and select "System Information". If you are running an older version of the software, your box may suffer from problems that have already been fixed! Check the fixed bugs list to see what these might be. Software updates are included as part of the TiVo Service so if you subscribe you should be updated within a day or so.
