I'm at my wits end with this. I had the same problem a year ago, and stopped using digital cable because of it. Now that I have digital cable back, it's happening again.
I do my Tivo with Guided Setup for my Motorola Comcast Digital Cable box. Cool, no problems at all. But the FIRST time that I have a recording scheduled that's on a channel other than what I'm watching, the channel changes on the Tivo, and NOT the cable box - the Tivo records the show on the channel I was on at the time, instead of the channel it's supposed to change to. From that point on, channel changing doesn't work at all, and I have to reboot the Tivo, and sometimes even repeat Guided Setup.
I've missed countless shows over the past two weeks because of this, and it's driving me nuts. I use IR cables, and yes, they're lined up correctly. Can someone give me some advice? This is something that's making me lean towards ditching Tivo for Comcast's DVR - I love Tivo, and I love the features, but it's not worth missing the shows that I schedule it to record.
