Okay, Tivo did this thing where instead of recording channel 162 it recorded channel 10. (That is how it didn't record Dresden Files last night.)
Why does it do this and is there a fix for it?
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!

Are you using one of those IR things to change the channel on the cable box?
At one point my tivo missed all channels with a 6 in them - I had to slow down the speed in which the channels changed.
Yeah, I ran into the weirdo '6' problem at one point. If you check TivoCommunity.com, you'll find a FAQ with frequent problems, and channel changing is one of the biggies. All you have to do is go into the menus and try different IR blaster settings.
Okay - I will try that.
In my house, it's also sometimes the cat's fault, or mine really, for leaving the remote on HIS couch.
Here's a question. Since the iPhone SDK needs an Intel Mac, I'm toying with the idea of buying a Macbook Air. Has anybody got one? As they any good?
Well, they've only been shipping over a month, hard to tell if there are any major flaws.
Other than needing a separate optical drive, or borrowing one from a nearby computer over the network, it looks like a fun machine.
Thanks for the GnuCash rec, DX. I was just looking for something like that.
Liquid ledger looks good.
I wish I were tough enough for the gnu cash installation. I feel like a wimp. But with all that I've got going on, the shortest, flattest learning curve is the way I must go.
