Tivo remote playing up
 

I will be contacting customer services about this but was wondering if anyone else had had a simular issue.

A few months ago I get a new Tivo remote (Tivo 500 version) sent out as the old one was worn out. The new remote worked great until a couple of days ago when it started playing up. Sometimes I have to press a button a few tmes to get it to work, sometimes the remote freezes up with the red light staying on and it won't control the box at all. Pulling the batteries fixes the problem for a few hours but it always returns.

I've tried several sets of new batteries which has no effect and i've tried clearing and resetting the volume/power for controlling the tv.

Anyone got any other ideas?

Cheers.

Sounds like a faulty remote. Buttons sticking down, maybe?

Just call up and they'll send you a new one.

So finally got round to calling about the remote. Ended up swaping my TiVo and VHD for 2xV6 and upgrading my BB to 200mb for only a £19 activation fee and no increase in my monthly charges.

That will do for me :D

I don't think you will be disappointed! The V6 is definitely a good piece of kit in my opinion.
