Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Yes, you can do the manual record and the pause/FF stuff, but that is about it. No programmed record, even by time. Just you see something you like and you hit record.
Says the person who dumped her phone line and forgot that was how TIVO got it's programming information and couldn't figure out why her TIVO wasn't working for a while.
So, if I buy a used tivo - is it impossible to get the subscription?
Not at all - if the person had a lifetime, it might even transfer over. If not, you can sign it up under your name at the website.
sumi, as I understand it, another big problem with having a tivo without a subscription is that the clock drifts and there is no way to manually set the clock.
But if I buy a used tivo I can subscribe through the website - so that's a possibility.

Well, if the clock is running fast and gets ahead of the actual time, you could accelerate it to, say, 1/10th the speed of light, relying on relativistic time dilation to slow it down until it has the correct time again.
Can someone help with what should be a simple html/css problem? I've got an unordered list. I want bullets on some items, and no bullet on others. My style tags work correctly in Firefox, but in IE (versions 6 and 7), I'm not seeing bullets in front of ANY of the items. Am I missing something obvious? Here's the page: [link]
Clock drift is significant--I had mine unable to connect for a while, and I was losing the ends of shows, even though it hadn't been long enough for me to run out of programming information.
I don't have IE handy to test, but it looks like on the lines where you don't have a bullet, you're missing the final semicolon in your style attribute -- instead of list-style:none; you have list-style:none
I'd have to tweak to speculate more about why, but it's an easy fix to try and won't harm anything...
