OK, New Tivo User....

Got it all hooked up, could not wait to see the "power" that everyone has been telling me about...

it's not getting all of my #'s... IE I set up a season pass for Ghost Hunters new ep of new season was last night...

when it went to change to 160, it changed to 16!

any ideas as to way it would drop the last #?

I missed GH :mad:

Before anyone can offer help I think we're going to need more details... which TiVo, using CableCard(s), etc.

Silly Me :) I guess it would be hard to help with out that info huh!

Cable Box DCT2244/1161 ABCDEF
Series 2 Tvio
Hooked Up Via Coax Inputs
Using IR Blaster.

It's about 50/50 on if it changes to right chan. and not drops the last digit... I have moved my blasters and pushed the Tivo Back (to see if it's not confusing it's self with 2 ir beams) Not sure if that will work, till I get home from work.. But any suggestions you all have would be wonderful, I'm ready to pull my hair out!!

When you ran Guided Setup there were a bunch of questions about channel changing. It sounds like you need to go through that process again.

Try Settings-Channels-Channel Changing - adjusting the speed of the IR blast to see which works best. Also moving the blaster itself away from the front (towards you if you're looking at the STB) can help.

that is the odd thing, it worked great doing the setup.. of course, it does not try high numbers then...

Yes, Last night I moved the blasters back from the eye and pushed the tivo back.. hopefly when I get home from work, I'll ahve a few shows and it worked :)

I seem to have fixed the problem.. Turns out that I need to move the Ir Blasters and also COVER UP some of the Sensor On the Tivo as well, enough to where the remote still works... it's nailing everything correctly now.. WOOT
