I think this is where the picture is worth 1000 words:
The video (and we do have one) is probably worth 10,000. The “mat” here flaps in the breeze. It’s really something.

Beyond Description: Nasty TiVo
Here’s an email we get a lot – and something I always forget to post on the blog: auto-record of TiVo Suggestions.
When customers get a new hard drive from us (we’ve got them for every model TiVo) and they install it and set it up, they find that it’s recording a lot of shows that they haven’t requested. And, shows they don’t want.
This is happening because TiVo Suggestions is on by default – and the new drive is using the default settings. And why are they shows you don’t want? Your thumbs-up and thumbs-down history was on your old drive. So the new drive has very little info to offer to the Suggestion engine.
OK – here’s how to turn it off. Go to:
Settings -> Recording -> TiVo Suggestions
and choose No!
That should do the trick. Now you can just delete the accumulated shows. If you have folders on, you should see them all in a folder marked “TiVo Suggestions”.
There have been several blog posts about TiVo HDs being out of stock at TiVo and at BestBuy.
TiVo does have them in stock if you want a refurbished unit.
If you want a new one, we have them – all shapes and sizes. See our complete line of TiVo HDs.

Our Name – In Print!
Pretty exciting to see your name in print! OK, so this is the white pages.
Seriously: does anyone use the white pages anymore? Or even the yellow pages?
I guess this is why we have big recycling bins here in Los Angeles.
Hopefully we’ll have something more interesting to report from CES . . .
